★★在实在论的思辨转向中思考“物”★ ★
“物”及其本体存在方式已经成为近10年的学术热点。作为思辨实在论运动的重要发起者之一，格拉汉姆•哈曼提出了“以物为导向的本体论”，旨在阐明物的不可穷尽性：物与人、物与物之间的关系根本无法穷尽物本身。
★★对海德格尔哲学的反叛性解读★★
哈曼将《存在与时间》中的“工具-分析论”放在他对海德格尔哲学阐释的核心位置，以期发展出一个可能的关于用具的具体理论，重新点燃对物自体研究的兴趣。
★★《铃与哨：更思辨的实在论》姊妹篇★★
本书可被看作《铃与哨》的前作，两本书具有完全一致的框架结构，所收录文章的写作时间具有连续性，呈现出哈曼学术思考的完整路径。
-内容简介-
本书成书于2010年，收录了当代著名哲学家格拉汉姆•哈曼在1997—2009年的11篇论文和讲座稿，每章独立成篇。这11篇文章深入浅出地论述了当今哲学界风头正盛的思辨实在论思潮。
本书可以被看作是哈曼学术思考的起点，作者从对海德格尔哲学的反叛性解读开始，展示了由他所提出的“以物为导向的本体论”逐步发展的思想历程。在本书中，作者呼吁我们重新思考“物”及其多种存在方式。哈曼指出，拉图尔的行动者网络理论、海德格尔的工具分析论，以及列维纳斯的差异哲学为超越关系主义对物的狭隘理解创造了条件。在这些理论的基础上，他提出，物具有绝对的不可消逝性，它永远不会被任何关系所穷尽。在他看来，虽然诸物可以在人类主体的主观意图下联结起来相互作用，但是，在诸物之间发挥作用的存在方式远远多于人类的主观意图所明确呈现的。物的存在方式与互动方式虽然带有人类主体的烙印，但这些主观烙印无法彻底穷尽物的诸多种类与存在方式。

What is reality, really?
Are humans more special or important than the non-human objects we perceive?
How does this change the way we understand the world?
We humans tend to believe that things are only real in as much as we perceive them, an idea reinforced by modern philosophy, which privileges us as special, radically different in kind from all other objects. But as Graham Harman, one of the theory's leading exponents, shows, Object-Oriented Ontology rejects the idea of human specialness: the world, he states, is clearly not the world as manifest to humans. At the heart of this philosophy is the idea that objects - whether real, fictional, natural, artificial, human or non-human - are mutually autonomous. In this brilliant new introduction, Graham Harman lays out the history, ideas and impact of Object-Oriented Ontology, taking in everything from art and literature, politics and natural science along the way.

★实在论在21世纪的“思辨转向”催生了当今哲学界炙手可热的思潮——思辨实在论。这一思潮针对20世纪欧陆哲学的反实在论的哲学根源进行了深入的剖析与批判。
★格拉汉姆·哈曼——思辨实在论思潮的核心成员之一——早年怀着阐释海德格尔哲学的初衷，从《存在与时间》中的“工具-分析论”出发，发展出了思辨实在论的其中一条理论进路——对象引导哲学。
★作者哈曼作序为不甚熟悉这一学说的中国读者介绍了其理论背景和历史渊源。
-内容简介-
本书收录了格拉汉姆·哈曼于2010—2013年所作的16篇博文、采访与演讲。这些文章按时间顺序编排，每篇独立成章，这些章节虽不能构成一部结构完整著作的有机部分，但其中会反复论及以下内容：
• 胡塞尔的现象学
• 海德格尔的工具-分析论
• 麦克卢汉的“冷媒介”与“热媒介”学说
• 拉图尔的行动者网络理论
在本书中，哈曼用一种亲切的笔触和诙谐的文风，介绍了当今哲学界风头正盛的思潮——思辨实在论，及其亚种——对象引导本体论，这是他从1992年便投身其中的学术志业，那时，他第一次试图开创一种对海德格尔的新的解读方式。

Prince of Networks is the first treatment of Bruno Latour specifically as a philosopher. It has been eagerly awaited by readers of both Latour and Harman since their public discussion at the London School of Economics in February 2008. Part One covers four key works that display Latours underrated contributions to metaphysics: Irreductions, Science in Action, We Have Never Been Modern, and Pandoras Hope. Harman contends that Latour is one of the central figures of contemporary philosophy, with a highly original ontology centered in four key concepts: actants, irreduction, translation, and alliance. In Part Two, Harman summarizes Latours most important philosophical insights, including his status as the first secular occasionalist. The problem of translation between entities is no longer solved by the fiat of God (Malebranche) or habit (Hume), but by local mediators. Working from his own object-oriented perspective, Harman also criticizes the Latourian focus on the relational character of actors at the expense of their cryptic autonomous reality. This book forms a remarkable interface between Latours Actor-Network Theory and the Speculative Realism of Harman and his confederates. It will be of interest to anyone concerned with the emergence of new trends in the humanities following the long postmodernist interval. 'Graham Harman does for Bruno Latour what Deleuze did for Foucault. Rather than a recounting of Latours impressive sociological analyses, Harman approaches Latour as a philosopher, offering a new realist object-oriented metaphysic capable of sustaining contemporary thought well into the next century. What ensues is a lively and productive debate between rival, yet sympathetic, orientations of object-oriented philosophy between two of our most highly original, daring, and creative philosophers, giving us a text destined to have a major impact on contemporary philosophical thought and providing exciting avenues beyond reigning deadlocks that haunt philosophy today.' Professor Levi R. Bryant (Collin College), author of Difference and Givenness: Deleuze's Transcendental Empiricism and the Ontology of Immanence. 'Graham Harmans book Prince of Networks is a wonderfully eloquent exposition of the metaphysical foundations of Latours work. This is not an introduction to Latour. It is rather a skilful and penetrating interpretation of his work, as well as a insightful Heideggerian critique. At last somebody has taken Latour to heart and to task. I cannot imagine a more forceful, incisive and lucid analysis of the foundations of Latours work than this one.' Professor Lucas D. Introna (Lancaster University)
