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 realism.

Contemporary interest in realism and naturalism, emerging under the banner of speculative or new realism, has prompted continentally-trained philosophers to consider a number of texts from the canon of analytic philosophy. The philosophy of Wilfrid Sellars, in particular, has proven remarkably able to offer a contemporary re-formulation of traditional "continental" concerns that is amenable to realist and rationalist considerations, and serves as an accessible entry point into the Anglo-American tradition for continental philosophers. With the aim of appraising this fertile theoretical convergence, this volume brings together experts of both analytic and continental philosophy to discuss the legacy of Kantianism in contemporary philosophy. The individual essays explore the ways in which Sellars can be put into dialogue with the widely influential work of Quentin Meillassoux, explaining how—even though their methods, language, and proximal influences are widely different—their philosophical stances can be compared thanks to their shared Kantian heritage and interest in the problem of realism. This book will be appeal to students and scholars who are interested in Sellars, Meillassoux, contemporary realist movements in continental philosophy, and the analytic-continental debate in contemporary philosophy.

Fabio Gironi holds an Irish Research Council Postdoctoral Fellowship in the School of Philosophy at University College Dublin, Ireland. He has published numerous articles on realism in contemporary continental philosophy, on Wilfrid Sellars, and on Quentin Meillassoux.
