Abstract
CORMICK, CLAUDIO. TIME AND SITUATEDNESS MERLEAU-PONTY'S RESPONSE TO MCTAGGART'S PARADOX. Ideas y Valores [online]. 2014, vol.63, n.156, pp.165-189. ISSN 0120-0062. https://doi.org/10.15446/ideasyvalores.v63n156.38960.
The article seeks to establish a relationship that has not yet been explored satisfactorily between Merleau-Ponty's phenomenology of time and a central issue of analytical "theory of time": McTaggart's paradox. By clarifying the authentic meaning of Merleau-Ponty's "subjectivism" regarding time, against Priest's interpretation (1998), the article points out a convergence between the phenom-enological approach and Michael Dummett's theses developed in response to the abovementioned paradox. A "situational" solution to the paradox is attempted on the basis of Dummett's ideas and Bimbenet's interpretation of Merleau-Ponty's "perspectivism".
