Abstract

The article investigates posthumanism in the context of speculative realism and object-oriented philosophy. Posthumanism is been considering as post-anthropocene on the assumption of critics of conventionalism as a correlation between thinking and being. The speculative turn appears as the non-human turn, taking into account the statement of the existing of existence in the absence of a thought. The post-Anthropocene is understood as postpostmodern in connection with the orientation to the objectivity as an aggregate of objects, one of which is a human being. This kind of objectivity takes into account the aleatoricity of reality and in view of this the speculations of the real have a expressed play component, which at the level of matter is manifested in the mutability of the dark ontology of the slimy. In the speculative reality of the post-Anthropocene, the human being itself is objectified, appears as a human object and it is in this state that it discovers the diversity of its qualities and relations. The human object in this case is an aggregate of objects, in turn splitting into a number of objects, which provides a post-Anthropocentric possibility of thought without thinking. Undermining and overmining, i. e. polytical as subversion of a subject in post-postmodern events brings him to the state of a human object. Thus, the principle contingency of the post-anthropocene is proved.
