Abstract:
Goethe and Aristotle
Modern science presupposes a particular view of time. This is biased by the form time has in the present. If truth is supposed to be conceived in relation to what appears in time, it therefore becomes a phenomenon of the unity of time that is understood as a perpetual present. This is why this concept of truth must lack the essence of the temporal. In Aristotle’s philosophy there are several approaches to a different concept of truth, but during the course of history these have hardly been explored further. Is there any truth in time? In the author's opinion, Goethe's rcsearches bordered on such an understanding of time. This is essentially related to art as an achievement of human activity. A theory of science that takes into account this aspeet is still lacking today.
