Temporal Consciousness
The Oxford Handbook of the Philosophy of Consciousness July 9, 2020 Philippe Chuard 57 citations
Temporal consciousness—how we perceive the timing and order of events—raises three core questions: how sensory experiences convey temporal information, whether the temporal structure of experiences themselves influences how they represent events, and how this appears in conscious awareness. Most theories are distinguished by their answers to these questions. This chapter outlines the main current theories and their assumptions, then critically reviews key arguments in the debate.
