Quentin Meillassoux

Quentin Meillassoux is a philosopher who explores how we can understand reality beyond human perception. He challenges the idea that our thoughts shape what exists, advocating instead for the possibility of a universe that exists independently of our minds. Meillassoux argues that, through reason, we can access absolute truths about the universe, including its existence and origins, even if we can't directly experience them. His work encourages a reconsideration of metaphysics, emphasizing the importance of scientific knowledge and questioning assumptions about certainty and contingency in the nature of existence.
