About Antiquity and the Meanings of Time

Society and contemporary culture seem forever fascinated by the topic of time In modern fiction Ian McEwan The Child in Time and Martin Amis Time s Arrow have led the way in exploring the human condition in relation to past present and future In cinema several cultural texts Memento Minority Report The Hours have similarly reflected a preoccupation with temporality and human experience And in the sphere of politics debates about the end of history prompted by Francis Fukuyama indicate that how we live is deeply determined by our relationship not only to place but also to the passing of time But what did the ancients think about time Is our interest in chronology a relatively recent phenomenon Or does it go further back In his major new work Duncan Kennedy indicates that our own fascination with time reckoning is by no means unique Discussing a number of key texts such as Homer s Odyssey Sophocles Oedipus Rex Virgil s Aeneid and Ovid s Metamophoses and imaginatively setting these side by side with modern works such as Sterne s Tristram Shandy and Joyce s Ulysses he shows that from era to era and in different ways human beings have uniformly striven to understand the unfolding of history and their relationship to it
