Abstract

In their 2020 paper ‘Unfreezing the spotlight’, Correia and Rosenkranz argue that the spotlight theory – the mix of the view that, always, everything always exists and the view that there is a metaphysically robust property of presentness for times – is sufficient for temporal passage, and that the fact ‘that this robust property of presentness attaches to different times as time goes by … is unnecessary’. In this paper, I shall reveal that Correia and Rosenkranz’s spotlight theory is a moving spotlight theory in disguise.

移动聚光灯的“解冻聚光灯”方式

摘要

在他们 2020 年的论文“解冻聚光灯”中，Correia 和 Rosenkranz 认为聚光灯理论（即一切事物总是存在的观点与存在性存在于时间的形而上学稳健属性的观点相结合）足以满足时间段落，并且“随着时间的推移，这种强大的存在性属性附加到不同的时间……是不必要的”。在本文中，我将揭示科雷亚和罗森克兰茨的聚光灯理论是变相的移动聚光灯理论。
