ABSTRACT
This paper assumes a comparative stance and, as such, aims at exposing the
similarities and differences in Aristotelian, Kantian, and Humean
conceptualizations of Space and Time. The oft dual concepts of space and time
constitute one ontological problem of philosophy that has over the years been
given serious attentions through all epistemic and logical analyses. Studies have
also shown that there are various views of scholars on this philosophical concept
through all epoch of philosophical analysis. Some have given it an ontological
and epistemological explanation. The analytic philosophers have also viewed it
logically. Nevertheless, this paper utilizes critical expository method of
philosophizing to compare the views of the three philosophers mentioned. As
one of the fundamental issues in Philosophy, variations in conception has not
rendered their existence void as essential part of existence rather, an epistemic
exposition of them adds more knowledge to Scientists, Mathematicians and
Philosophers alike
