Abstract: 

The multitude and overlap of times is one of the somewhat unsettling yet characteristic features of modernity. Since the French Revolution, history has lost its exclusive meaning as measurement for the natural chronology of events, but took on a second meaning according to which periods in time are understood as eras and connected to specific sets of ideas.Henceforth, otherwise overcome ideas could stay on, times and histories can superimpose each other. Ernst Bloch has termed the effects of this overlap of times as ‘Ungleichzeitigkeit’ (non-synchronism). The present, according to Bloch, can reflect simultaneously various and often discrepant histories, pre-histories and futures. Pasts can persist, futures can linger, different layers of time can coexist concomitantly.
