A few comments about temporality and anticipation n the neurosciences, psychology and psychiatry
Keywords:
temporality, atemporality, time perception, anticipationAbstract
Philosophers, as well as psychologists, physiologists, and psychiatrists, have long been interested in temporal duration (temporality). This article presents an overview aimed at demonstrating the value of philosophical ideas about the nature of time in relation to neurophysiology, neuropsychology, and psychiatry. It consists of four parts. The first sets out the views of W. James and E. Husserl on anticipation. The second part deals with a still unpublished article by the famous French neurophysiologist P. Buser, devoted to the physiological mechanisms of anticipating movements. The third and fourth parts examine the relationship between phenomenology and psychiatry, starting with the work of E. Minkowski—“Lived Time”—and concluding with contemporary works on the perception of time in mental illness, especially schizophrenia. In conclusion, the author asks what time is, whether it is connected with the content of an experienced event, if it is a fundamental atemporal framework of mental life, or if it is both.
