Time asa representative of culture

Abstract

Category of time applies to the most significant notions not only philosophy and physics but a whole number of other natural, social, humanist sciences, as reflects the most important, the most essential connection and relations between a reality and a cognition. Furthermore, as a phenomenon, time is fundamental for every manifestation of a man being. It penetrates a language, a world-view; determines way of a life-activity organization; imposes a system of values; specifies a meaning of a man life. The post-modernist situation, the different interpretation of scientific rationality, the beginnings of the global or multicultural world indicate a necessity of time re-opening (I. Prigozhin) and its new sense, make a range of the time-researching problems as a cultural phenomenon again a problem of today.
