temporal structures

Temporal structures refer to the ways we organize and understand time within various contexts, such as history, events, or personal experiences. They help us make sense of sequences, durations, and relationships between events. For instance, we use timelines to visualize historical events or calendars to plan future activities. In literature, temporal structures can shape narratives by controlling the order in which events are revealed. Overall, they provide a framework to analyze how events unfold and their significance over time, enhancing our comprehension of the past, present, and future.
