Heidegger and Aristotelian Interpretation of Time

“

The conducted research disclosed the incompleteness of judgment of the ideas stated by Aristotle on the basis of the ordinary or instrumental interpretation of time formulated as statements: (1) time is identical to the results of measurement of duration, (3) time is identical to the results of measurement of duration which is determined by the frequency or probability of events at the speed of a body close to that of light, and (4) time is identical to the results of measurement of duration which is determined by the frequency or probability of events in the perception field of the subject. According to Aristotle, time can be interpreted as a sphere in which the grammar of language expresses the horizon of the expected acts and states peculiar to people. Therefore, Aristotle fits the interpretation of time both into the context of statement (1), and in the framework of the thesis (2) time is identical to the basis of being, in versions (5) time is identical to the basis of being that coincides with the questioning type of being, and (6) time is identical to the basis of being that coincides with the subject type of being. The continuity of Aristotle's ideas and the instrumental interpretation of time as systems of measurement of processes are combined with an anticipation of alternative approaches to the interpretation of time. Time is related to the subject of a statement and shows the connection of representation of time and existential characteristics of anything thought to be included in temporal changes.
