Alle Thyng Hath Tyme recreates medieval people's experience of
time: as continuous and discontinuous, linear and cyclical,
embracing Creation and Judgement, shrinking to 'atoms' or
'droplets' and extending to the silent spaces of eternity. They
might measure time by natural phenomena such as sunrise and sunset,
the motion of the stars or the progress of the seasons, even as the
late medieval invention of the mechanical clock was making
time-reckoning more precise. Negotiating these mixed and competing
systems, medieval people gained a nuanced and expansive sense of
time that rewards attention today.
