Abstract

In this paper I will be focusing on the introduction to Hilan Bensusan’s latest work Indexicalism: The Metaphysics of Paradox and will be picking out some passages to look over and analyse through a contemporary Hegelian lens. This will be entitled Part 2. However, in Part 1 I will briefly share with you what appears in my aforementioned upcoming book (Object Oriented Dialectics: Hegel, Heidegger, Harman) as two paradoxical accounts of exteriority and how this relates (or contrasts) to Bensusans own understanding of exteriority.
