The syntax of time : the phenomenology of time in Greek physics and speculative logic from Iamblichus to Anaximander

The syntax of time : the phenomenology of time in Greek physics and speculative logic from Iamblichus to Anaximander / by Peter Manchester.

Bridging from Husserl to Iamblichus, this book contributes phenomenological readings of Plotinus, Aristotle, Parmenides, and Heraclitus, in which prevalent misconceptions about the very identity of time in the phenomena of motion are corrected, and time's role in Greek philosophy recovered.
