Shows how fiction makes philosophy see reality as a multiplicity of worlds Rok Benčin explores the idea that reality is structured as a multiplicity of divergent, yet coexisting worlds. By engaging with the work of modern and contemporary philosophers and writers, in particular G. W. Leibniz, Alain Badiou, Gilles Deleuze, Jacques Rancière and Marcel Proust, he proposes a new understanding of these worlds as overlapping transcendental frameworks consisting of fictional structures that frame ontological multiplicity. Examining political conflicts and aesthetic interferences that exist between divergent worlds today, he reconsiders the way political and artistic practices reconfigure contemporary experiences of worldliness. Rok Benčin is a Research Associate at the Institute of Philosophy at the Research Centre of the Slovenian Academy of Sciences and Arts.
