The articles here are not only about time, they are
investigations from a specific temporal perspective: the
calendrical event of the millennium. This arbitrary marker has
provided a challenge and focus to the International Society for the
Study of Time and to thinkers in all disciplines to take stock of
what has gone before and what lies ahead, approaching the event of
the millennium from the standpoint of time itself, and asking
critical questions about the nature and experience of time.
Divided into six areas, including literature and language,
music, psychology, sociology, history, and marking time, the
collection is specific in content and broad in implication. Each
article makes a contribution to scholarship within an individual
discipline, and yet each transcends the bounds of discipline in its
approach to broader issues involving the study of time. There is no
other source like The Study of Time series that focuses so
intensely on the nature and experience of time from diverse
perspectives in all academic disciplines. This volume reveals the
range and magnitude of intellectual endeavor in interdisciplinary
research inspired by the enduring human fascination with time.
