Phylogenetic and ontogenetic aspects of human time perception are discussed with respect to topical considerations as well as to suggestions related to Ego-Psychology. Some phenomena of undisturbed time perception are compared to conscious and non-conscious disturbances of time perception whereby emphasis is put on modalities of the neurotic's specific and unspecific attitudes to time. The question of timelessness of the Unconscious is brought up with regard to contributions of analytic literature. The specificity of time in the situation of psychoanalytic therapy is investigated; aspects of the patient's inner and outer attitude to time in this situation are pointed out and completed casuistically.
