本文的目的是说明阿尔弗雷德·A·罗柏的时间哲学源于他对相对论的解释;同时，探讨他的哲学同时代人未能理解其意义的原因，特别注意罗素对它的接受。研究罗素对罗伯的反应暴露了罗素自己的时间哲学中的缺陷，这些年来罗素的时间哲学一直非常有影响力。它还突出了闵可夫斯基和罗柏之间的哲学差异，罗素和麦克塔格特共同的理想主义前提，以及罗素，爱丁顿和麦克塔格特观点之间的汇合。本文最后叙述了罗布的解释如何被现代物理学所采用。
The aim of this paper is to explain the significance of Alfred A. Robb’s philosophy of time stemming from his interpretation of relativity theory; and at the same time, to investigate the reasons for the failure of his philosophical contemporaries to appreciate its significance, with special attention to its reception on Russell’s part. The study of Russell’s reaction to Robb exposes shortcomings in Russell’s own philosophy of time, which has been extremely influential through the years. It also highlights the philosophical differences between Minkowski and Robb, the shared idealistic premises of Russell and McTaggart, and the confluences between the views of Russell, Eddington and McTaggart. The paper closes with an account of how Robb’s interpretation has been vindicated by its adoption in modern physics.
