Description
This volume takes up the challenge implied in Augustine’s paradox of How does one account for the continuity of history and the certitude of memory, if time, in the guise of an indivisible “now,” cuts off any extension of the present? The thinkers and artists the essays address include Augustine, Abelard, Eriugena and Thoreau, Calvin, Shakespeare, De Rance, Stravinsky and Messiaen, Rubens and Woolf.
