Man in the Mechanism of Time. Reflections on the Relation “Subject–Time” in Robert Musil‘s Novel 𝑇ℎ𝑒 𝑀𝑎𝑛 𝑤𝑖𝑡ℎ𝑜𝑢𝑡 𝑄𝑢𝑎𝑙𝑖𝑡𝑖𝑒𝑠

Summary/Abstract: This report addresses the issues of subject-time correlations in the diagnosis of the epoch at the beginning of the twentieth century that was made by Robert Musil’s novel “The Man Without Qualities”. Phenomena of acceleration and delay, perspectives and structures of experiencing time are addressed. Relativization of the frontiers of time and the subject’s boundaries manifest themselves as the Musil’s perception of an allocentric experience of an overall presence in the world.
