Abstract
From Prologue: Due to its interdisciplinary nature the subject of time exercises a universal fascination. The analysis of temporality implies the investigation of temporal experience within various fields, such as physics, biology, psychology, philosophy, and other social sciences. Each discipline, science and art can develop its own interpretation and take up a position in comprehending the discourses of time. This stresses the multiplicity and incompleteness of numerous theories that keep each other off balance, undermining the formation of a Grand Theory of time. But, to recognize temporality as a mystery does not entail giving up our attempts to explain it. The purpose of this dissertation is to analyze various forms of time phenomenon in postmodern literature and more specifically within the works of Thomas Pynchon and Robert Coover, whose texts encompass broad transformations of the notions of temporality in the Western culture that have taken place since the 1960s and involve changes in science, technology, aesthetics, and socio-economic structures, which ties literary texts and their innovative narrative structures to physical changes. It does not mean that these changes simply influenced the revolution in literature, because revolutions in all aspects of life occurred more or less simultaneously, with literature as one of the forces shaping our culture.
