Abstract:
What, if anything, are we talking about when we say that time passes? In the Western
tradition, philosophical investigations on the nature of time divide between realist approaches according to which there is a truth beyond the metaphor of the passage, and anti-realist approaches according to which the passage of time is ultimately an illusion. In this contribution, I will overview the logical space in which various options for the realist and the antirealist are to be found: time idealism and passage antirealism, various forms of standard realism, and non-standard forms of realism of passage.
