Garcian Meditations The Dialectics Of Persistence In Form And Object Jon Cogburn by Jon Cogburn 9781474415927, 147441592X instant download after payment.

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.

• A critical guide to Garcia’s systematic metaphysical treatise, Form and Object, and its reconfiguration of traditional philosophical debates
• Bridges both the analytic and continental philosophical traditions
• Raises several residual and substantive problems concerning: anti-reductionism, Kantianism, epistemic comprehension and non-epistemic set membership, quietism and the Euthyphronic dilemma, and persistence over time
• Includes an interview with Garcia asking him about the critical issues raised in the book and his current research
