Speculative realism: introduction
Please sign in so that we can notify you about a reply
Spring 2007, London. Four philosophers - Quentin Meyuas, Ray Brassier, Yen Hamilton Grant, Graham Harman - met to discuss how to return to philosophy a long -lost reality itself in itself. Some of them relied on the mathematical comprehension of reality or natural science images of the extinct universe, others on the radical interpretations of the classics of philosophy. In this discussion, speculative realism was born - a daring collective attempt to return philosophy its former dignity and the courage of speculative thinking.
speculative realism is not a single position, but the place of discussions and intellectual experiments of young philosophers. They united against the common enemy and dared to think of the reality hiding from us behind the veil of the final human phenomena (language, culture, social and cognitive structures, flesh, etc) To do what has been prohibited since the time of Kant. “Speculative realism: Introduction” is an opportunity to be in the center of the most interesting and ambitious over the past decades attempts to win the future of philosophy.
Graham Harman, the leading theorist of object-oriented ontology (one of the versions of speculative realism), offers his view of speculative realism as a controversial whole, reveals the main positions, divergence and purpose of four branches of one of the most important trends in modern philosophy
