  • Time and agency [Elektronski vir] : sublating conceptions of the future in St Augustine and the Later Mohist Canon
    Rošker, Jana S.
    Our understanding of time, including the future, is grounded in a universal percep- tion shared across cultures. However, the ways in which this universal perception is comprehended differ ... significantly, shaped by the linguistic structures of various lan- guages and the broader culturally conditioned frameworks of reference they are part of. These differences in comprehension give rise to diverse models of the future, offering unique insights into alternative perspectives on the metaphysics of time and its relation to the philosophy of action. This paper explores these alternative perspectives through a comparative analysis of the Later Mohist view from ancient Chinese thought and St Augustine’s introspective framework, influential in West- ern philosophy. By employing the method of transcultural comparative sublation, the study uncovers the strengths and limitations of each perspective, showing how diverse approaches to time deepen our understanding of the future as both a realm of possibility and a structural feature of reality. This dialogue encourages criti- cal reflection on human agency, ethics, and the role of time in shaping existence, potentially revealing new perspectives on their interconnections and implications.
