It is often claimed that the debate between presentism and eternalism is merely verbal, because when we use tensed, detensed or tenseless notions of existence, there is no difference in the accepted metaphysical statements between the adherents of both views. On the contrary, it is shown in this paper that when we express their positions making use, in accordance with intentions of the presentists and the eternalists, of the tensed notion of existence (in the case of the presentists) and the detensed or tenseless notion (in the case of the eternalists), the controversy remains deep and very important for us, because both ontological claims express a different attitude to the existence of the flow of time. It is shown that not only does the proposed approach to presentism and eternalism exactly express the intentions of the adherents of both views but it also offers a better understanding of them joining together seemingly different theses maintained by the presentists and the eternalists, and explaining at the same time the dynamism of the presentists’ ontology. The paper takes for granted that we should assess metaphysical theories in a similar way as we assess scientific theories, that is on the basis of their explanatory value.

The author of the article tries to connect opinions on time of some modem and post-modem philosophers and sociologists of the 19th and 20th centuries (Hegel, Marx, Bergson, Foucault, Baudrillard, Bauman, Deleuze, Bćlohradsky, Mizińska...) with some texts of Czech and world, modem and postmodem literaturę (particularly with drama) of the same time: A. and V. Mrstikove - Rok na vsi; K. Toman - Mćsice; M. Proust - A la re- cherche du temps perdu; S. Beckett - En attendant Godot, Fin de partie, Krapp's Last Tape, Nouvelles et Textes pour rien; K. Śiktanc - Ćesky orloj; V. Macura - Ten, ktery budę; M. Ravenhill - Shopping and Fucking, Faust (Faust is dead); S. Kane - 4.48 Psy- chosis; M. HoroSćak-Vafenyhlavy aneb „Dćvće, tobS na kozach tanći smrt“; W. Mastrosimone - Like Totally Weird. It is obvious that time is incorporated in the titles of most of these works.

Celem artykułu jest pokazanie, skąd się biorą nasze trudności z wyjaśnieniem, na czym polega upływ czasu oraz przedstawienie pewnej propozycji rozwiązania tego problemu opartej na koncepcji dynamicznego istnienia rzeczy, a rozwijającej ideę absolutnego stawania się. Rozważania oparte są na założeniu, że nasze podstawowe teorie metafizyczne – podobnie jak te stosowane w naukach przyrodniczych – powinny spełniać warunek spójności, prostoty oraz bogatej zawartości.

The aim of the paper is to show the difficulties with which we are faced when we try to explain what the flow of time consists of. The paper proposes a solution to this problem based on the notion of the dynamic existence of things and the developing the idea of absolute becoming. It is assumed that our fundamental metaphysical theories should satisfy conditions of coherence, simplicity and richness of content similar to those satisfied by theories in the empirical sciences.

W artykule podjęto rozważania na temat marzeń seniorów. Wyjaśniając kategorie takie jak czas i przestrzeń, autorka podjęła próbę ukazania marzeń jako elementu przestrzeni życia i czasu życia, odnosząc je szczególnie do starości. Zadała pytanie: czy w przestrzeni życiowej seniorów znajdują się marzenia, jak też: jakie towarzyszą im konteksty i znaczenia? Marzenia autorka przedstawiła jako kategorię pedagogiczną, przydatną w budowaniu wiedzy o człowieku, jego potrzebach, możliwościach, pragnieniach (poznając marzenia seniorów można poznawać starość). W konkluzji autorka stwierdza, iż w przestrzeni życiowej seniorów jest miejsce na marzenia, uznając, iż rozbudzanie marzeń mogłoby stać się solidnym narzędziem przygotowania do starości rozumianej jako budzenie motywacji do wiary w możliwość przekraczania zastanej rzeczywistości.

By explaining categories such as time and space the author aims at presenting dreams as element of life space and life time by referring them especially to the old age. She stated the following question: are there any dreams in the life space of elderly people and: what are their contexts and meanings? The author presents dreams as a pedagogical category useful in building knowledge of man, his needs potential and desires (by learning about dreams of elderly people one can learn about old age). In the conclusion the author states that there is indeed space for dreams in elderly people’s life space, as stimulation of dreams could become a substantial tool for preparing for the old age understood as increasing motivation to believe in the possibility of exceeding existing reality.
