The realist view of passage developed in this book differs from the robust, substantivalist position. According to relationism, passage is nothing over and above the succession of events, one thing coming after another. Causally related events are temporally arranged as they happen one after another along observers' worldlines. There is no unique global passage but a multiplicity of local passages of time. After setting out this positive argument for relationism, the author deals with five common objections to it: (a) triviality of deflationary passage, (b) a-directionality of passage, (c) the impossibility of experiencing passage, (d) fictionalism about passage, and (e) the incompatibility of passage with perduring objects. Relational Passage of Time will appeal to scholars and advanced students working in philosophy of time, metaphysics, and philosophy of physics. 410 0$aRoutledge studies in metaphysics 606 $aTime 606 $aRelationism 606 $aTime perception 610 $aB-theory of time 610 $ablock universe view 610 $acausal events 610 $adirectionality of passage 610 $aeternalism 610 $aillusion of passage 610 $aMatias Slavov 610 $ameasuring passage 610 $ametaphysics 610 $aNewtonian mechanics 610 $aperspectival matter 610 $aphilosophy of time 610 $arelationalism 610 $arelational passage of time 610 $aspacetime 610 $atemporal fictionalism 610 $atemporal passage 610 $atemporal relations 615 0$aTime. 615 0$aRelationism. 615 0$aTime perception. 676 $a115 700 $aSlavov$b Matias$01271902 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910572195203321 996 $aRelational Passage of Time$92996269 997 $aUNINA
