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 Firstly, to assess the speculative realist formulations of the real regarding the 'withdrawn' object, radical contingency, the absolute register of extinction, and the current interest in 'powers philosophy', with special attention to their possible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 withthe 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.
Compare and contrasts the speculative idealism of Hegel with that of the speculative realist movement Marks a new path that transcends the analytic and continental divide in philosophy Resuscitates traditional Hegelian metaphysics in light of recent findings in science and astronomy
