History as the ontology of time requires to be understood what time is Time is the transformation of future into the past by the choices in the present History should be grounded on that understanding of historical time, which would include the present and future rather than only the past:
- History rests immediately on what time is
- Time should be understood as a relation of the one and the same being in two mody: by itself and as an inseparable constituent of a relevant whole
- That approach stresses on the present and choice, which can be accomplished only in the present therefore reconciling absolutely uncertain future and the well-ordered past
- That understanding of time implies for history to be generalized from the historiography of the past facts to a relevant joint description of past facts, present choices, and future possibilities.
Key words: History, Ontology, Time, Choice, “Dazeit”
