This may seem problematic for an A-theory of time such as presentism, according to which only what is present exists, for it seems to leave no room for the instants of a Cantorean time line. This paper defends a version of presentism that can accommodate the Cantorean conception and more generally any approach to the micro-structure of time based on durationless instants.</p&gt;}, number={13}, journal={Philosophy Kitchen - Rivista di filosofia contemporanea}, author={Orilia, Francesco}, year={2020}, month={set.}, pages={99-109} }
