离开一边麦克塔格特的时间的非现实性的臭名昭著的证明,本文探讨了他的方式,其中现实,从而判断为永恒的,误导性地出现在我们的时间,这几乎完全被忽略的文学积极的帐户。本文首先探讨了他的复杂的动机,在采取的问题。接下来,它考虑了一个早期不成功的方法,然后阐述了麦克塔格特的巨著《存在的本质》中提出的复杂替代方案的细节。本文最后考虑如何建设性的形而上学的努力应该得到最好的评价。
Leaving to one side McTaggart’s notorious proof of the unreality of time, this paper examines his positive account of the way in which reality, thus judged to be timeless, misleadingly appears to us as temporal, something which has been almost entirely ignored in the literature. The paper first examines his complex motivations in taking up the issue. It next considers an early unsuccessful approach, before expounding the details of its complex replacement as set out in McTaggart’s magnum opus,The Nature of Existence. The paper concludes with a consideration of how such endeavours in constructive metaphysics ought best to be evaluated.
