Abstract

This book offers a detailed defense of a metaphysics of Platonic universals and a conception of particular objects that is coherent with said metaphysics. The work discusses all the main alternatives in metaphysics of properties and tries to show why universals are the entities that best satisfy the theoretical roles required for a property. The work also explains the advantages of Platonic over Aristotelian universals in the metaphysics of modality and natural laws. Moreover, it is argued that only Platonic universals are coherent with the grounding profile required for universals. The traditional objections against Platonism are discussed and answered. The third part of the book, finally, offers a conception of particular objects as nuclear bundles of tropes that is coherent with the Platonic ontology of universals. This book is of interest to anyone that wants to understand the current –and intricate– debate in metaphysics of properties and its incidence in many other areas in philosophy.

Abstract

Hegel and Speculative Realism has two main objectives. Firstly, to assess the speculative realist formulations of the real regarding the 'withdrawn' object, radical contingency, the absolute register of extinction, and the current interest in 'powers philosophy', with special attention to their possible relation to the absolute scope of Hegelian philosophy. Secondly, to invite the reader to reconsider Hegel in a new way; uncovering rare insights into his thoughts on astronomy, actuality, the concrete and non-being. Johns' inclination is to not mistake the necessary path to the absolute as the only path. Johns argues that Hegel describes the unique trajectory of the dialectical relationship between Nature and Idea as a Spirit oriented by both logical and physical (spatio-temporal) dimensions. Johns reads this as a theory of singularity and makes the bold claim that there may be other paths not taken by the Hegelian spatio-temporal path synonymous with the dialectic; synthesis, sublation and unfolding. In-fact, speculative philosophy should not be satisfied to study only "what exists" but also what "could exist" or what it means to "inexist" and should entertain multiple modes of potential becoming between Hegel's initial triad of logical categories; Being, Non-Being and Becoming. Charles Johns is a Research Fellow at Goldsmiths University, London, U.K. His research areas include the philosophy of G.W.F Hegel and speculative realism. Currently, Johns engages with these philosophical ideas in relation to current findings in science, cosmology and astronomy. .
