The nature of time has haunted humankind through the ages. Some
conception of time has always entered into our ideas about
mortality and immortality, and permanence and change, so that
concepts of time are of fundamental importance in the study of
religion, philosophy, literature, history, and mythology. On one
aspect or another, the study of time cuts across all disciplines.
The International Society for the Study of Time has as its goal the
interdisciplinary and comparative study of time. This volume
presents selected essays from the 12th triennial conference of the
International Society for the Study of Time at Clare College,
Cambridge. The essays are clustered around themes that pertain to
the constructive and destructive nature of memory in
representations and manipulations of time. The volume is divided
into three sections Inscribing and Forgetting, Inventing, and
Commemoration wherein the authors grapple with the nature of memory
as a medium that reflects the passage of time.
