The paper analyses Aleksei F. Losev’s position in respect to the notion of time, which he considers in a dialectical perspective. The Russian philosopher proceeds from the Platonic interpretation of the relationship between the one and the many, according to which each plurality carries in itself a unifying principle, as its ontological grounding. This anti-modern perspective represents a rejection of the positivist “objectification” of the world, which introduced the “metaphysical” notions of absolute space and time. According to Losev, time as an indefinite continued progress of events that occur in an apparently irreversible succession (from the past, through the present, into the future) does not exist as such and cannot be considered other than within the framework of the overall unity of temporal fragments, so that they acquire a common background. By placing the interpretation of time on the ontological plan, in its dialectical connection with its opposite (eternity), Losev manages to overcome the problem of the measurability of time, raised in Aristotle’s definition of time as a “measure of motion.” Losev also rejects modern subjectivist ideas about time as an experience of the present (Husserl) or as pure duration (Bergson), both conceptions inevitably leading to the problem of identifying in the continuous flow of time a stable (extratemporal) ground that serves as the basis for any temporal change. Besides that, Losev’s approach to the interpretation of time leads to criticism of the modern idea of progress, understood as an endless striving for the future, which always remains unattainable. The main task then is to find “mobile rest,” a unifying principle that can give meaning to human existence through the combination of past, present and future.

作为永恒意象的时间:AF Losev 对主观时间观念的批判

本文分析了阿列克谢·F·洛舍夫在时间概念方面的立场,他从辩证的角度考虑了时间概念。这位俄罗斯哲学家从柏拉图式对一与多之间关系的解释出发,根据这种解释,每个多元本身都带有一个统一原则,作为其本体论基础。这种反现代的观点代表了对世界的实证主义“客观化”的拒绝,后者引入了绝对空间和时间的“形而上学”概念。根据洛舍夫的说法,时间作为以明显不可逆转的顺序(从过去,现在,到未来)发生的事件的无限持续进展本身并不存在,并且只能在整体统一的框架内考虑时间碎片,使他们获得共同的背景。通过将时间的解释置于本体论计划上,在与它的对立面(永恒)的辩证联系中,Losev 设法克服了时间的可测量性,在亚里士多德将时间定义为“运动的度量”中提出。洛舍夫也拒绝现代主观主义关于时间作为当下经验(胡塞尔)或纯粹持续时间(伯格森)的观念,这两种观念都不可避免地导致了在连续的时间流中识别一个稳定的(超时间的)基础的问题。任何时间变化的基础。除此之外,洛舍夫对时间的解释方法导致了对现代进步观念的批评,被理解为对未来的无止境的努力,这总是无法实现的。接下来的主要任务是找到“移动休息”,这是一个统一的原则,可以通过过去、现在和未来的结合来赋予人类存在以意义。
