abstract = {[first paragraph] I want to consider some features of the position put forward by Julian Barbour in The End of Time1 that seem to me of particular philo- sophical interest. At the level of generality at which I'll be concerned with it, the view is relatively easy to describe. It can be arrived at by thinking of time as decomposing in some natural way linearly ordered atomic parts, 'moments', and combining an observation about the internal structure of moments with an epistemological doctrine about our access to the past. The epistemological doctrine, which I'll call 'Presentism', following Butterfield, is the view that our access to the past is mediated by records, or local representations, of it. The obser- vation is that the state of the world at any moment has the structure of what Barbour calls a 'time capsule', which is to say that it consti- tutes a partial record of its past, it is pregnant with interrelated mutu- ally consistent representations of its own history.},
