Presentism and the non-present
Philosophical Studies 113 (1):77 - 92 (2003)
| Abstract | In this paper I argue that presentism has a problem accounting forthe truth of statements whose truth conditions seem to require therebe relations that hold between present and non-present objects. Imotivate the problem and then examine several strategies for dealingwith the problem. I argue that no solution is forthcoming, and thispresents a prima facie problem for presentism. | |||||||||
