Résumé
The author introduces the research method on time typical of the philosophical current called recentivism (from Lat. recens - present). This current proclaims that the description of some phenomenon is possible in all times, but is true only in the present time. The method used by the author calls for explaining the world each time anew (a recentiori), from some first impression, the first now (recens).
