Description: |
Quentin Meillassoux has been described as the fastest-rising star in French philosophy since Derrida in the 1960s. In Meillassoux: Philosophy in the Making, Graham Harman takes us behind the scenes for this unique study of Meillassoux's path to philosophy and his remarkable published and unpublished writings. |
Synopsis: |
Quentin Meillassoux's entry into the philosophical scene marks the beginning of a new epoch: the end of the transcendental approach and the return to realist ontology. Harman's beautifully written and argued book provides not just an introduction to Meillassoux, but much more: one authentic philosopher writing about another - a rare true encounter. It is not only for those who want to understand Meillassoux, but also for those who want to witness a radical shift in the entire field of philosophy. It is a book that will shake the very foundations of your world! Slavoj ae'iae'ek, philosopher and psychoanalyst An in-depth study of the emerging French philosopher Quentin Meillassoux Quentin Meillassoux has been described as the most rapidly prominent French philosopher in the Anglophone world since Jacques Derrida in the 1960's. With the publication of After Finitude (2006), this daring protege of Alain Badiou became one of the world's most visible younger thinkers. In this book, his fellow Speculative Realist, Graham Harman, assesses Meillassoux's publications in English so far.Also included are an insightful interview with Meillassoux and first-time translations of excerpts from L'Inexistence divine (The Divine Inexistence), his famous but still unpublished major book. |
