"Introduction: Framing the Present Peter Boxall When does the present begin? An immediate
answer to this curiously vexing question might be to suggest that the present does
not begin. The present, one might argue, has no duration. It is the now, the passing
moment, and as such cannot be truly said to have a beginning or an end, and cannot
be measured, or regarded in any sense as having passed, or being to come. The present
does not unfold or occur, but is the vanishing, fleeting medium of our immediate becoming"
