[SLUG] timpestamps in bash

Is there a way to get timestamp info on a single directory or file
without parsing ls -l output? I'm trying to dynamically choose the
backup folder depending on which is older... What would be really cool
is an "is older than" comparison. I couldn't find anything in the bash
literature except ls -l stuff. Thank you!
