Time is money, Benjamin Franklin once said, and in a reading of
European philosophy, this text shows how true this adage is. A
history of philosophy of time, and a comparison of ways of
conceiving the temporal, this work attempts to unravel the
theoretical frameworks that have given time its shape in Western
civilization. It analyzes the social and political processes
involved in conceptions of time in ancient and medieval tradition
and sets them in the context of contemporary political and
philosophical debates centering on the thought of Kant and Marx. It
forces the reader to re-evaluate the philosophical and historical
status of time in Western culture.
