The Legacy of Kant in Sellars and Meillassoux by Fabio Gironi

The Legacy of Kant in Sellars and Meillassoux by Fabio Gironi

This book brings together experts of analytic and continental philosophy to discuss the legacy of Kantianism. It explores the ways in which the philosophy of Sellars can be put into dialogue with the work of Meillassoux, explaining how their stances can be compared thanks to their shared Kantian heritage and interest in the problem of reali

"The volume does achieve something important: it demonstrates that Meillassoux's speculative materialism is not an eccentric position to be found in some far-off corner of continental philosophy, but a serious and interesting position that should be engaged by those who stand in other traditions of contemporary philosophy" – Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews

"This book takes up the contemporary legacy of Kant and his transcendental idealism in dialogue with two of his most influential recent interpreters: Wilfrid Sellars and Quentin Meillassoux. Though situated on different sides of the analytic/continental divide, both of these philosophers’ interpretations have revitalized the discussion of Kant’s philosophy and its associated metaphysics and transformed it for contemporary philosophical discussion. This is the first book to bring Sellars’ and Meillassoux’s respective treatments of Kant explicitly into dialogue and, as such, will be essential in laying the groundwork for a twenty-first century discussion of Kant’s epistemology and metaphysics beyond the analytic/continental divide." —Paul M. Livingston, University of New Mexico, USA
