Description
Speculative Realism: An Introduction by Graham Harman provides a comprehensive overview of this influential philosophical movement. First introduced in 2007 through a workshop at Goldsmiths, University of London, Speculative Realism has since spread across various disciplines, including philosophy, art, architecture, and the humanities. The book offers a balanced assessment of its key figures, including Ray Brassier, Iain Hamilton Grant, and Quentin Meillassoux, as well as Harman's own Object-Oriented Ontology. It explores central philosophical questions, such as the nature of correlationism and the stakes of philosophical realism, providing a clear summary of Harman's OOO. This book offers a valuable introduction to Speculative Realism, covering its historical and conceptual development. With helpful end-of-chapter study questions chosen by Harman himself, it provides a first-rate resource for students seeking to understand this vital and fast-developing field in contemporary philosophy.
