Time to Think and Thoughts About Time

In this episode, UT Professor of Philosophy Dr. Daniel Bonevac joins us to discuss the contents of a recent seminar he presented at Stumberg Hall on the philosophy of time. He discusses and explains some of the authors he selected for the seminar including Augustine, Boethius, Borges, and McTaggart. An eclectic selection to be sure, but one that makes sense given the implications of time Dr. Bonevac wished to explore for the seminar. Is time real? How does time bear on memory, identity, human freedom, fate, or ethics? These are some of the questions that will be explored here at length, and we hope you find it edifying and even helpful for better understanding the role of time in your own life.
