Beskrivning
The publication of Form and Object: A Treatise on Things by Tristan Garcia, Prix de Flore-winning novelist, philosopher, essayist, and screenwriter is a genuine event in the history of philosophy. Situating this event within classical, modern and contemporary dialectical space, Jon Cogburn evaluates Garcia's metaphysics, differential ontology, and militant anti-reductionism through a series of seemingly incompatible oppositions: substance/process, analysis/dialectic, simple/whole and discovery/creation. Cogburn also includes a critical assessment of the consequences of Garcia's philosophy, the various unresolved problems in his treatise and the future prospects of speculative metaphysics.

Recensioner i media

Far-ranging and clearly written, this book is an indispensable critical guide to Tristan Garcia’s innovative metaphysical project in Form and Object as well as a significant contribution, in its own right, to today’s leading metaphysical debates. Relating Garcia’s work to that of recent and contemporary analytic philosophers including Quine, Putnam, and Priest, Cogburn’s book will be eagerly sought by those looking for a foretaste, across the analytic-continental divide, of the metaphysics to come.
