This chapter looks back on the arguments in the whole book and formulates the intended main take-aways: First, that thinking about the existence of the past should be taken seriously, not just academically but also for our personal lives. And second, that arguments from lived experience are an effective part of the philosopher’s toolbox in the search for truth. It is argued that both these take-aways are closely related: if one finds the discussion of the existence of the past in terms of our personal lives philosophically interesting, then this entails that using arguments from lived experience are relevant for theoretical philosophy.
