Continental Realism And Its Discontents (New Perspectives In Ontology)

10 critical essays challenge speculative realism from perspectives from German idealism to phenomenology and deconstruction. Speculative realism challenges philosophical approaches and traditions for supposedly failing to do justice to the real world. Taking this realist challenge seriously, Continental Realism and Its Discontents refuses to discard the philosophical contributions of Kant, Schelling, Merleau-Ponty, Derrida and Nancy without closer scrutiny. Instead, the contributors turn to these thinkers to meet the challenge of realism in contemporary philosophy.
