Abstract

Time represents the fundamental dimension of human existence, implicitly of any human enterprise. Everything man does is articulated in time and depends on time, having a specifically temporal unfolding, with consequences on the flowing time axis. Defining temporality and its conditions for existence is very difficult, it is an undertaking thousands of years old, with many attempts that only partially covered the aspects it supposes. Time is one of the fundamental concepts of science and of Philosophy. The two fields can be assimilated to the analysis of two aspects: cataphatic (objective) and apophatic (subjective) – with important consequences in Bach’s Missa BWV 232.
