3 In this paper I argue that Time travel is compatible with a branching future topology of time, provided that we endorse the thin red line view. 2012, La Filosofia del Tempo, AphEx - Portale italiano di Filosofia Analitica, Giornale di Filosofia Network, 5 < f> This is an overview of the state of the art in philosophy of time and an attempt to draw the borders of this area of research The Metaphysics of the Thin Red Line (with A. Borghini), forthcoming in F. Correia, A. Iacona (eds.), Around the Three, Berlin, Synthese Library, Springer Verlag. In this paper we defend the thin red line hypothesis against common misconceptions 2011 The Modal Dimension, Humana.Mente Journal of Philosophical Studies, 19: In this paper I discuss Lewis modal realism and argue for a radical interpretation of it The Grounding Problem and Presentist Explanations, forthcoming in Synthese (online first: In this paper I argue against presentism, in particular against the deflationist solution to problem of grounding past truths The not so incredible shrinking future (with R. Casati), Analysis, 71, 2: In this paper we argue that the shrinking future view of time, that is the tenet that reality is composed only by the future (which keeps on shrinking or eroding) and the present, has no less intuitive appeal than the more common growing block view Perspectival Truth and Perspectival Realism, in F. Recanati, I. Stojanovic, N. Villanueva (eds.) Context-dependence, perspective and relativity in language and thought, De Gruyter, Mouton Series in Pragmatics: In this paper I argue that genuine relativism implies perspecitval realism; I raise then certain problems with the latter. 2010, Time, Context, and Cross-temporal Claims, Philosophia, 38: (online first < U R L = 3

4 time. In this paper I argue that a proper treatment of cross-temporal relations clashes with a A-theoretic view of 2009 Bare Particulars and Persistence in Bergmann (with Luca Angelone), in Bruno Langlet & Jean-Maurice Monnoyer (eds.)

Carrara & V. Morato (eds.), Language, Knowledge, and Metaphysics: selected papers form the 1st SIFA Graduate Conference, College Publications, London: In this paper I discuss MacFalane s retrospective assessment semantics, and propose a metaphysics of time suitable for it Tensed Time vs. Tensed Truth-Makers, in G. Bonino and R. Egidi (eds.) Fostering the Ontological Turn, Gustav Bergmann , Frankfurt, Ontos: In this paper I criticize Dean Zimmermann s distinction between taking tense seriously and tense realism. 2006, Crimes and Punishments, with A.Varzi, Philosophia, 34: In this paper we argue that our criteria for counting actions, and therefore crimes and their punishments, only in few cases are ontologically grounded. 2006, Tenseless cross-temporal Relations, Metaphysica, Vol. 7, No. 2: In this paper I argue that Berit Brogaard s proposal of construing cross-temporal claims (such as my son is now taller than my daughter was at twelve ) as expressing relations irreducibly tensed has two major problems that a tenseless construal of cross-temporal claims can cope with. Proceedings 2006, Cross-temporal Relations, in Proceedings of the Fifth Conference of the Spanish Society of Logic, Methodology and Philosophy of Science, Granada In this paper I argue that presentism (the thesis that, quantifying on absolutely everything, only present things exist) is not compatible with a satisfying semantics for cross-temporal claims.
