    Aristotle and the problem of time
    (Uludağ Üniversitesi, 2005-06-01) Kabadayı, Talip
    In this paper, I aim to explain the nature of time and of the now in Aristotle as much as possible so that I can set forth the problem of what the relation between time and the now is. In his Physics in book IV, Chapter 10, Aristotle illustrates his version of time. At first sight, Aristotle examines that time exists and what it is and in how many senses we speak of the now and what sometime, lately, presently or just, long ago, suddenly and so on mean. In order to disclose the nature of time and the importance of the now in terms of Aristotle, first I am going to try to summarize what Aristotle says about time, and then I will look into the concept of the now since it strikes me that time is centered on it in Aristotle’s version of time.
