10 critical essays challenge speculative realism from perspectives from German idealism to phenomenology and deconstructionSpeculative realism challenges philosophical approaches and traditions for supposedly failing to do justice to the real world. Taking this realist challenge seriously, Continental Realism and Its Discontents refuses to discard the philosophical contributions of Kant, Schelling, Merleau-Ponty, Derrida and Nancy without closer scrutiny. Instead, the contributors turn to these thinkers to meet the challenge of realism in contemporary philosophy.Key FeaturesChallenges the current anti-realist reading of key post-Kantian thinkersProposes alternative forms of realism to speculative realism or object-oriented ontologyContributorsAlison Assiter, University of the West of England, Bristol, UK.Lee Braver, University of South Florida, USA.G.
