Zeit und Tempus

100%
EN
The aim of this article is to present the phenomena of time and tense which are strictly connected with each other and in some European languages are used synonymously. However, the German language makes a clear distinction between them. The lack of accordance between a tense’s name and its function often results in the fact that one tense expresses not only the present, but also the past or even the future, like the German tense Präsens. Lexical figures articulating temporal relations and Modalfaktor indicating the likeliness of a sentence’s content should be taken into consideration by temporal interpretation of a statement.

Model prožívaného času podle Petra Vopěnky

EN
In the Ninth Meditation, entitled „O změnách jevů v čase“ (“On Changes in Pheno­mena in Time”), in the book Meditace o základech vědy (Meditations on the Foundations of Science; Praha, Práh 2001), Petr Vopěnka presents a certain non-traditional conception of experienced time, founded on his new infinite mathematics. The point of departure for his model is the idea of an “atomistic rhythm”, which is a linearly structured discrete sequence of beats. It is assumed that this rhythm is so fine that it runs far (or deeply) beyond our ability to distinguish individual beats from each other, so that it appears to us to be a continual temporal line. In this paper, Vopěnka’s model is interpreted in detail, but in the absence of mathematical formalism, and a view is presented as to how we might, on the basis of this model, formalise intuitive concepts such as past, future, present and the momentary “Now”. The interpretation is accompanied by a detailed analysis of Vopěnka’s approach and a sketching of the prospects for alternatives to it.

This study follows on from previous research on the “ancien time régime” (to around 1800) by R. Koselleck and A. Assmann. It examines representations of eternity in exempla, legends and other texts. The basic motif of these texts is the break with the time, i.e. the situation where the mortal man enters a different time regime (such as paradise) and spents there a seemingly a short time, while, in fact, hundreds of years have passed. The study describes the basic types of these tales (song of the bird, wedding, vision, etc.) and analyses their common motifs.

The main objective of this paper is to show the differences and similarities in the use of demonstrative forms in Polish and Spanish, which arise not only from differences paradigmatic (Spanish ternary system vs Polish binary system), but also pragmatic context. With the help of electronic corpora the author tries to answer the question of what factors influence the conceptualization of these deictic expressions in both languages.

Celem artykułu jest opisanie i sproblematyzowanie fenomenu wstecznej narracji filmowej. Filmy takie jak „Happy End“, „Zdrada“, „Dwie przyjaciółki“, „Miętowy cukierek“, „Memento“, „5x2“ czy „Nieodwracalne“ w różny sposób funkcjonalizują chwyt odwróconej chronologii sekwencji. Jego rolą jest nie tylko stymulowanie aktywności odbiorczej, lecz także redefinicja, czy też dekonstrukcja konwencji gatunkowych oraz form identyfikacji widza z bohaterem. Nowatorstwo strukturalne i samozwrotność tych filmów sprawiają, że ich interpretacja musi uwzględniać także „fikcyjne doświadczenie czasowe“ (Paul Ricoeur). Autorka bada wsteczną narrację z perspektywy poetyki historycznej i form recepcji. Artykuł zawiera analizę sposobów, w jakie odwrócona chronologia sekwencji przedstawia kwestie epistemologiczne oraz opozycję przyszłości i przeszłości. Kontekstem analitycznym artykułu są narzędzia wypracowane przez narratologię (Mieke Bal) i teorię neoformalno-kognitywną.

The aim of the article is to describe and problematize the phenomenon of reverse film narration. Films such as „Happy End“, „Betrayal“, „Two Friends“, „Peppermint candy“, „Memento“, „5x2“ or „Irreversible“ use the technique of the reverse sequence of events in different ways. Its role is not only the stimulation of the reception by the audience, but also a redefinition, or perhaps deconstruction of genre conventions and forms of viewer’s identifications with the protagonist. The structural innovation and self reflexivity of these films mean that their interpretation must also consider fictitious experience of time (Paul Ricoeur). The author reflects on reverse narrative from the perspective of historical poetics and forms of reception. The article contains an analysis of ways in which reverse sequence chronology presents epistemological matters and the opposition between the future and the past. The analytical context for the article is provided by the tools developed in narratology (Mieke Bal) and neoformal-cognitive theory.

Тhis article analyses Macedonian phrasemes with zoonymic component denoting time. Zoonyms mainly came from surrounding environment which was expected having in mind the fact that man often reaches for something that is well known to him in an attempt to understand something far and abstract, such as the category of time. What distinguishes the analyzed units from the rest of the phraseological material with zoonymic components is their relative neutrality, bearing in mind that in general the zoonymic phrases are negatively colored. Such neutrality is due to their semantics, as well as to the fact that they show the characteristics and animals behavior as they are in reality

In this paper the importance of the history of the philosophy of nature for this field of philosophy is examined. It is also shown why the history of philosophy in science (philosophy of nature) is important for Polish philosophy. Next, some selected issues of the historiography of this field are examined. It is suggested, that an interesting perspective of investigations is the one, which shows the development of the Polish philosophy of nature from the point of view of the development of philosophical reflections on the issue of time in the period 1900–1939.

This paper presents a theory of utterance content that is neutral with respect to some of the key issues in the debate about the proper semantics of tense. Elaborating on some ideas from Korta & Perry (2011), we defend a proposal according to which utterances of both temporally specific and temporally unspecific sentences have a systematic variety of contents, from utterance-bound to incremental or referential. This analysis will shed some light on the contribution of tense to what is said by an utterance.

In this paper we consider the construction of a LAK system of temporal-epistemic logic which is used to formally describe algorithmic knowledge. We propose an axiom system of LAK and discuss the basic properties of this logic.

Carl von Weizsäcker analyzes the information concept in the framework of his own philosophy. He emphasizes, on the one hand, the irreversibility inherent in the time structure and, on the other hand, the dependence of information on temporal relations. In his view, information constitutes an abstract, albeit real, element of the world related to the form, structure, and order. Its quantitative and dynamical character assimilates it to matter and energy. Information does not exist outside material processes and human consciousness. Its dynamical aspect is strictly connected with communication, and evolutionary and entropic processes. In Weizsäcker's view, information becomes a philosophical concept. His approach hardly could be regarded as a full theory of time and information; it is rather an attempt at grasping their mutual dependencies and meaning.

Purpose: The aim of the study is to discuss the problems related to consumer time valuation and its implications. This domain remains relatively unexplored in marketing literature. Methodology: The author approached the time valuation problem in a synthetic and interdisciplinary way. To facilitate the analysis of time characteristics as a consumer resource and temporal decisions, the comparison with money was applied, which is an approach well established in the literature. Findings: Time can be a source of value only to selected consumers, as not all perceive time as scarce. Mental accounting for time is difficult; hence consumers tend to use heuristics to arrive at their temporal decisions and prefer immediate discounting of temporal benefits. Contrary to a popular adage, time is not money, at least in the context of the majority of consumers’ decisions. Research limitations/implications: Despite growth in the number of publications, knowledge of temporal aspects in consumer behavior is limited and fragmented. Less is known about how to turn the perceived value of time into customer value. Further investigation is needed to identify consumer groups that truly value time. Practical implications: The knowledge of temporal aspects of consumer behavior, and how consumers value time, would be of particular use in the service industry, where the “when” of customer value is usually provided in the form of “convenience”. Originality: This study sheds light on research gaps in the literature in an under- investigated subject, examining the link between the perceived value of time and possibilities to generate value based on temporal benefits.

The article deals with the problem of time in the context of several theories of modem physics. This fundamental concept inevitably arises in physical theories, but so far there is no adequate description of it in the philosophy of science. In the theory of relativity, quantum field theory. Standard Model of particle physics, theory of loop quantum gravity, superstring theory and other most recent theories the idea of time is shown explicitly or not. Sometimes, such as in the special theory of relativity, it plays a significant role and sometimes it does not. But anyway it exists and is implied by the content of the theory, which in some cases directly includes its mathematical tools. Fundamental difference of space-time processes in microcosm and macrocosm is of particular importance for solving the problem. In this regard, a need to understand the time in the way it appears in modem physics, to describe it in the language of philosophy arises (satisfactory for time description mathematical tools also do not exist). This will give an opportunity to get closer to the answer on question of time characteristics. And even if we do not obtain the exact answer, we will still be able to formulate the right question about its nature. For this purpose, the present research carries out analysis of the key theories of modern physics with regard to historical and scientific, historical and philosophical perspectives, hi some cases, this gives an opportunity to detect the succession of the associated with time perception ideas, their development, as well as the origination of fundamentally new ones. During the analysis, the conect characteristics of time are formulated from the point of view of physical theory and the attempt to state the nature of time is made. On the ground of conducted research, the conclusions about current state of the problem and its future solution perspectives are drawn.

The paper concerns the question of establishing such a time ontology that would enable to depict in a precise manner changes in discontinuous, turbulent environment of enterprises. It is necessary if one wants to build a temporal analytical model of this environment, capable of indicating the most important changes, their reasons, directions and effects, as well as their influence on enterprise’s operations. It is indispensable to take into account the features of the environment being analyzed, and to properly adjust the ontology of time. In the paper an ontology of time is proposed, that is well suited to depicting and analyzing the turbulent economic environment of an enterprise. The main aim of the paper is to analyze the specific features of economic realm, which determine the time structure, and to present a proposal of time ontology suited for economic analyses.

Time and its Philosophical Implications

EN
The conception of time, presented by St. Augustine, unites within itself the physical-philosophical views of Aristotle, and its own psychological view concerning the lived experience of the flow of sensory impressions from the past towards the future. H. Majkrzak (1999) underlines, in Augustine, the existential moment of time. The time of a human life is limited: it is situated within borders stretching from the day of birth to the day of death. This faithful and precise representation of the Augustinian conception of time, nevertheless brings the reader up against a problem: What value does it have today?

In this essay I take issue with Derrida's interpretation of Husserl's phenomenology of internal time-consciousness in Speech and Phenomena. Derrida's critique of Husserl's phenomenology of time also forms the basis for what Derrida regards to be an undermining of phenomenological philosophy itself. After first disagreeing with Derrida's interpretation of Husserl's understanding of time I proceed to object to his “undermining” of phenomenology. I attempt to illustrate that his critique of phenomenology is unconvincing.

This paper discusses the duality of metaphorical conceptualizations of time focusing in particular on time as a pursuerand time as an object of pursuit metaphors, which are based the Figure–Ground reversal of each other. Using examples taken from the British National Corpus, it argues that these metaphorical conceptualizations of time are inconsistent with each other. This inconsistency resembles the discrepancy between the moving time and moving observer metaphors, which are, in strict terms, also inconsistent with each other. Looking at such contrasts between metaphorical representations of time from a broader perspective suggests that the concept of time arises from different, both physical and socio-cultural, dimensions of human experience.

The paper is devoted to a problem of temporal reasoning for (among others) managerial tasks. It shows the complexity of economic environment, which leads to representational problems. Next the features of a temporal reasoning systems are pointed out, and finally one of such systems – a PROTON one – is presented and critically discussed.

From time to time we ask ourselves about the status of our discipline. Th e answers to the questions regarding the methodology of history, the epistemology of history, the theory of history depend on the theoretical presuppositions of the researcher. Th e expectation that there is a single paradigm of research in the history of historiography requires the recognition and consent that there is one single mode of refl ecting on history. In this article, I argue that the history of historiography can be understood as history of historical thinking in all its contexts.

The experience of time passing , perceived both individually and as a group, being a psychological fact and contributing to complex cultural relations, determines historical knowledge (the interpretation of historical processes and definition of facts). We should remember, when we talk about the interpretation of time, understood as the assessment of historical facts, allowing for the integration of a given society around an idea, around va- lues constituting their cohesion and, to a considerable extent, determining its relations with the outer world, that it is always a product of social discourse, grinding views, a se- arch for such a vision of the futurę with which at least the groups most important to a community’s functioning would identify.The letter of John Paul II addressed to the nations of Poland and Ukrainę, in which the question of evaluating the tragic events in Volyn during World War II was brought up, is the subject of this analysis. The article attempts to answer the question (taking into consi- deration the complexity of the process shaping mutual neighbourly relations) how the Pope endeavours to attain his objective, which is to encourage Poles and Ukrainians to re- concile and to reject the past for the sake of tasks facing united Europę.The Pope’s letter is undoubtedly a speech realized with the use of lexical and stylistic means typical for religious language. At the same time, the analysis shows that certain elements of the letter are typical for the language of politics.The Pope’s text in the world of freedom and pluralism, where numerous political sub- jects make contact with society by means of varied language, escaping explicit assessment, is marked by an expressive, easily recognizable description of reality and ans- wers a common need (the Pope feels responsible for the word, and builds a speaker-reci- pient relationship in order for the reader to become the subject capable of creating the world), thus he is appreciated and noticeable in the world of mass culture.
