# Philosophy of time | | Philosophy of space and time is the branch of philosophy concerned with the issues surrounding the ontology and epistemology of space and time. While such ideas have been central to philosophy from its inception, the philosophy of space and time was both an inspiration for and a central aspect of early analytic philosophy. The subject focuses on a number of basic issues, including whether time and space exist independently of the mind, whether they exist independently of one another, what accounts for time's apparently unidirectional flow, whether times other than the present moment exist, and questions about the nature of identity. | |-|-| | | wikipedia:: [Philosophy of space and time](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philosophy_of_space_and_time) | persistence, [[Identity (philosophy)]] - [[Temporal finitism]] - [[Time perception]] - [[Temporal paradox]] - [[Mereology]] - [[Temporal parts]] - [[Four-dimensionalism]] - [[Perdurantism]] - [[Endurantism]] - [[Philosophical presentism]] - [[Eternalism (philosophy of time)]] - [[Arrow of time]] - [[No man ever steps in the same river twice, for it's not the same river and he's not the same man]] ## [[Paradox]]es - [[Temporal paradox]] ## Inbox - [[Being and Time]] - *Temporality*
