Abstract: The idea about time within the outlines of philosophical anthropology erases the boundary between the cognitive intentions of the philosophical and non-philosophically oriented knowledge as well as it tries to raise the question about the comprehension of time within consciousness in the context of a total cognitive theory. The paper displays how the most significant thinkers within the history of the philosophical reflection on time up until the beginning of the second decade of the twentieth century aim (even intuitively) critically to distinguish themselves from the non-philosophical visions of temporality. However, we believe this is an undertaking in vain, because we claim there is a cognitive discipline which can unify the entire knowledge about time and not keeping it only in the realms of specific fragmented regional ontologies, i.e. philosophical anthropology.
