This text presents a critical reflection on the philosophical conception of time, originally prepared for a lecture in January 1991. The author rejects Kant's notion of time as an a priori form of intuition, seeking instead to explore "real" time as a non-objective reality. A central theme is the distinction between time and the temporality, or "timing," of genuine events. Every true event possesses its own timing, which acts as a movement toward the incoming future, thereby constituting the event as a subject. The text emphasizes that time is a fundamental prerequisite for all experience rather than merely a mode of experiencing. Furthermore, the author analyzes time-consciousness, cautioning against the confusion between the internal timing of actions and their placement within a general temporal field. Ultimately, time is defined as something real yet non-objective. Subjective or objective forms of time, such as psychological or biological time, are secondary to the ontological investigation of timing as an active process of meeting the adventive future.
