ABSTRACT
The present article analyses Bradley’s critic of the time existence. Starting from a rigorous logical examination, the British idealist demonstrates that every relationship is contradictory, inconsistent. Therefore the time is contradictory, too and it is appearance, because it is constituted by elements mutually connected in an after and a before. The only Reality is the Absolute. In the Absolute, everything is contained in a Unity, that may be felt through an
immediate experience, a feeling, that is an absolute intuition. In the Absolute there is no time. The Absolute is non-temporal, but it includes time, as one of its aspects; in the Total, time is not a singular element and does not have spe-cific characteristics. In the Absolute, the typical time’s elements – the unity of after and before, and the direction to the stream – do not exist, and are only appearances of the human mind. In the Absolute only the Eternal exists.
