Historical time is a notoriously elusive notion. Yet, as societies
attempt to make sense of rapidly changing worlds, it gains a new
significance in the twenty-first century. This Element sketches a
theory of historical time as based on a distinction between
temporality and historicity. It approaches the fabric of historical
time as varying relational arrangements and interactions of
multiple temporalities and historicities. In the fabric, kinds of
temporalities and historicities emerge, come to being, fade out,
transform, cease to exist, merge, coexist, overlap, arrange and
rearrange in constellations, and clash and conflict in a dynamic
without a predetermined plot. The Element pays special attention to
the more-than-human temporalities of the Anthropocene, the
technology-fueled historicities of runaway changes, and the
conflicts in the fabric of historical time at the intersections of
technological, ecological, and social change.
