RESUMO:Este trabalho discute novas possibilidades do feminismo no movimento filosófico denominado realismo especulativo, na vertente de Quentin Meillassoux, de forma a oxigenar a epistemologia feminista contemporânea, que se encontra em clausura metafísica. Se, pré-Kant, o feminismo se encontrava enclausurado na postura objetivista, com a essencialização da mulher como imperfeita, por outro lado, pós-Kant, a mulher se encontra reduzida à verdade subjetivista da ordem epistêmica, gerando outras essencializações. O artigo propõe nova visão para se pensar o feminismo póscorrelacionista, com a ascensão de outra forma de reflexão ontológica: através da cosmontologia, uma compreensão do sexo, do gênero e da sexualidade nem melhor e nem pior, mas apenas diferente, que provoca a reontologização das ciências humanas pelo reconhecimento de outras grafias e modos de existência.

Quentin Meillassoux

A human-centred approach to the environment is leading to ecological collapse. One of the ways that speculative realism challenges anthropomorphism is by taking non-human things to be as valid objects of investivation as humans, allowing a more responsible and truthful view of the world to take place. Brian Willems uses a range of science fiction literature that questions anthropomorphism both to develop and challenge this philosophical position. He looks at how nonsense and sense exist together in science fiction, the way in which language is not a guarantee of personhood, the role of vision in relation to identity formation, the difference between metamorphosis and modulation, representations of non-human deaths and the function of plasticity within the Anthropocene. Willems considers the works of Cormac McCarthy, Paolo Bacigalupi, Neil Gaiman, China Miéville, Doris Lessing and Kim Stanley Robinson are considered alongside some of the main figures of speculative materialism including Graham Harman, Quentin Meillassoux and Jane Bennett.

<span>Este texto consiste básicamente en una presentación general de la corriente filosófica del nuevo realismo (realismo ontológico, realismo especulativo) surgida en 2007 y en la que participan autores europeos y norteamericanos. Un punto en común de las diversas posiciones dentro de esta corriente (Quentin Meillassoux, Markus Gabriel, Graham Harman) es el deslinde crítico frente a la filosofía posmoderna y a la filosofía moderna en general. Explico esta crítica y sus implicaciones para la posibilidad de un restablecimiento en la filosofía contemporánea del pensamiento metafísico (ontológico).</span>

Quentin Meillassoux

In Cormac McCarthy’s post-apocalyptic novel The Road (2006), which won the Pulitzer Prize for fiction, a boy and his father struggle to survive in a world decimated by an unspecified catastrophe.This post-apocalyptic world is dark, but relatively so because it is perceivable. The pre-apocalyptic world, as represented by the language of the father, is different. The father’s world is full of objects which are known and useful. The father’s world is a place of light and speech, while the boy’s world consists of darkness and silence. However, rather than reading the post-apocalyptic world as one of loss, its darkness is taken as a sign of potential. While this interpretation goes against the grain of most of the novel, it is supported by the repeated figuration of the boy as God. Graham Harman and Quentin Meillassoux are the main philosophers used to develop this argument.

System and/as Contingency: Quentin Meillassoux and the Ethics of Chance

Quentin Meillassoux

In recent years, the relation between contingency and systematic claims to the absolute has again come to play an important role in Continental philosophy. This essay takes a closer look at how this relation is developed in the works of French philosopher Quentin Meillassoux. It argues that a specific demand for systematic knowledge underlies not only Meillassoux's ontology, but also his ethics, which come into conflict with his own systematic aspirations in certain key areas, most notably in his attempt to derive an ethico-political model of subjectivity from his theory of contingency. The essay furthermore explores whether Meillassoux's monism of chance, by systematizing contingency and declaring it a universal principle, does not in fact deprive the contingent of its contingent character, introducing a reductive stability that condemns the subject to a passive waiting ultimately lacking in ethical significance.
