- Abstract:
- I argue for a four dimensional, non-dynamical view of space-time, where becoming is not an intrinsic property of reality. This view has many features in common with the Parmenidean conception of the universe. I discuss some recent objections to this position and I oer a comparison of the Parmenidean space-time with an interpretation of Heraclitus' thought that presents no major antagonism.
