Summary: The anthology presents a selection of articles on the subject of time . Among these are a number of German-language contributions presented in English translation for the first time ever, including seminal articles by G nter M ller, Eberhard L mmert and K te Hamburger. The authors address their shared topic from three major disciplinary angles: philosophy, narrative theory and cognitivist studies. As our experience of time is intrinsically linked to our ability to recount and narrate events, the productive design and receptive re-construction of time constructs plays a particularly important role in narrative theory.
