In this seminar we will examine the varieties of aspects of the connections between Being, time and the experience of time, and the concept of meaning. We will discuss the ways in which the connections between these aspects are revealed in Kant's theory of knowledge, Husserl's transcendental phenomenology, and Heidegger's hermeneutical ontology. In the first part of the seminar we will examine Kant's views, in the second part we will address Husserl's theory of time consciousness and its relation to some of the fundamental concepts of his theory (the 'phenomenological epoché', the noetic-noematic structure of intentional experiences,  the transcendental I and other topics). In the final part of the seminar we will examine the transformation of Husserl's theories in Heidegger's hermeneutical phenomenology, as stated in Being and Time. We will examine the motivations that underlie this transformation and their philosophical adequacy.
