Beschreibung The problem of what happens at an instant of change is an old and venerable one. Many natural considerations push towards the thought that a contradiction is realised at the instant. The problem was discussed at length by Aristotle and Medieval Latin philosophers. It informs the views of motion of Hegel and Russell. It is part of the contemporary case for dialetheism. In this essay we will review a number of crucial episodes in the history of the topic.
