Time and freedom are two basic and important topics of philosophy.However,they are in conflict in long history.Time is necessary time,in this time,there is no space for freedom.In order to save freedom,philosophers make them into non-virtual world. Therefore,the notion of freedom became very abstract.However,Actual freedom must show itself in time,Jet freedom enter time and let time become free,this work is done by Heidegger in his masterwork Being and Time.Our piece first investigate two most important philosophers as to time philosophy:Aristotle and Kant,then we examine how Heidegger change the relation between time and freedom.Aristotle's thought about time is mainly contained in his work Physics.We will show the essence of his view about time from three aspects:the numbers of motion,the sequence of now,infinity. Aristotle'time is just what Heidegger say "popular view about time".Aristotle's thought have determined how we regard time as long as thousands of years.Modern physics simply inherited Aristotle's time thought,as though it has been thinked as the revolution of Aristotle'physics.We know science are dominant in modern culture,when philosophers receive the view of time from physics without any judge,they push freedome into a hopeless situtation.For saving freedom,kant put physical time into his critique.In his great work The Critique of Pure Reason,Kant proves that time can be only applied in the domain of phenomenon,freedom exist in the domain of noumenon which transcend time.Kant's criticque hadn't solove the problem,time and freedom are opposite as before.The Thoroughly criticque is done by Heidegger,who names his work as "deconstruct".Through this "deconstruction",heidegger find the source of physical time:temporality.In the foudation of this original time,time and freedom are unified.
