Focusing on the issue of temporality as a lens through which to view philosophical positions, this study critiques the assumptions of thinkers who have shaped the contours of the modern philosophical landscape. Rosenthal (philosophy, Loyola U.) presents the pervasive Western view of time as discrete in Part I (featuring the metaphysics of Whitehead, Weiss, Derrida, and McTaggart); and in Part II, its implicit rejection by Heidegger. The author then reconstructs time based on classical American pragmatism, drawing on Mead's understanding of selfhood and ideas of community by Rawls, MacIntyre, and Rorty.
