Resumen
We speify in what sense our urrent understanding of time and temporality resembles the point of view proposed by Aristotle al-most 2500 years ago. We disuss time as the rate of hange of events, in the light of Aristotle’s analysis. Events are registered by some hardware devie (brain) and pereived-ognized by some assoiated mind (software operating in a ertain ontext). We shall not disuss time without event registration and without mind. We review in detail the elementary arguments of Aristotle regarding memory, duration, and irreversibility. A natural ontext for the mindfulness of irreversibility is provided for systems with time op-erator. © 2022 Imprint Aademi.
