What is The Time Surfer?
Many websites and books about time often acknowledge the elusive and puzzling nature of the concept. Despite centuries of exploration, time remains a mysterious and challenging concept to define definitively. Terms like “enigmatic” and “ineffable” are commonly used, but they don’t offer much clarity in understanding the true essence of time. Aristotle, over two thousand years ago, famously declared that “time is the most unknown of all unknown things,” and this sentiment still holds today.
On the surface, time may seem straightforward—clocks ticking, calendars turning—but these are merely tangible representations of a deeper, underlying concept. Time is an integral part of our daily lives and academic pursuits, yet its fundamental nature proves challenging to grasp.
This website explores various facets of time, acknowledging that it might not completely demystify the subject but aims to provide a reasonably comprehensive overview. Topics covered include attempts at defining time, the history and methods of time measurement, diverse philosophical and religious perspectives on time throughout history, the scientific foundations of time (especially in physics and psychology), and various other aspects related to our understanding and utilization of time.
To ensure accessibility, the website tries to minimize technical jargon. A helpful glossary is included for quick definitions of terms. While not a scholarly work with specific references to primary sources, the site does offer a list of general sources and references for those interested in further exploration.
