Description
Enduring Time explores how our understanding of time is changing in response to contemporary challenges. Climate change, conflict, and social inequality have led to a reevaluation of traditional notions of time as progressive, generative, or flourishing.
The author examines the concept of suspended time, where waiting, delaying, staying, remaining, enduring, returning, and repeating become quotidian experiences that reveal the survival of social bonds. This book offers a striking philosophy of time, working with an eclectic archive of cultural, political, and artistic objects to reestablish the idea that time is something we both have and share.
Enduring Time provides a detailed survey of contemporary theories on time, making it an indispensable read for those seeking to live meaningfully in the current age.
