Sueño, tiempo, eternidad
Abstract
This paper explores the ways in which the Greek mind derived a notion of time's cyclical nature from the sleep/wakefulness alternation, as well as the influence of sleep/death dichotomies on Greek views of eternity. Particular attention is paid to figures in myth and history, such as the Sleeping Cronos, Endymion, Cleobis and Biton, the Cretan Epimenides and the Sardinian heroes.
