The concept of 'event' has held a prominent position in both analytic and continental philosophy since the middle of the 20th century. And yet, until recently, the division between these two traditions resulted in their respective theories of events rarely coming into contact. However, early 21st-century philosophy has been marked by a concerted effort by many to move beyond the analytic-continental divide. Explaining the nature of events, their place in reality, and their significance in the world has become a major problem around which segments of this work coalesce. This book draws together current philosophers to reframe existing debates on events within a post-divide pluralism, to recalibrate the theory of events based on recent ontology and metaphysics, and to advance the philosophy of events. It includes as an appendix a previously unpublished piece on the topic of events by the late Jean-Luc Nancy.
