本論文以梅亞蘇在2008年英文版本的《有限性之後:論偶然性的必然性》為主要討論之文本，焦點放在書中的兩個重要概念，即相關性和事實論性概念。梅亞蘇重新定義何謂真正的「哥白尼革命」，並且提出事實性，去除「物自身」和我們認識的對象的劃分。他從科學的角度，批判觀念論和相關主義者把形上學之物停留在存而不論。梅亞蘇所批判的相關主義者，分別是作為弱相關者的康德哲學，與強相關者的海德格哲學以及維根斯坦哲學。從批判這些相關主義者，梅亞蘇的目標是擴充人類的認識界限，獲得我們未曾思考過的真正知識。最後的部分，我們把曾天從與梅亞蘇的事實性概念作比較，曾天從是日治時期的台灣哲學家，我們會研究曾天從的理論如何帶來對思辯實在論的一些反省。

The main purpose of this thesis is to elucidate and analyze the concepts of correlationism and factiality from Quentin Meillassoux’s “After Finitude: An Essay on the Necessity of Contingency”,which was translated into English in 2008. Meillassoux reinterprets the significance of Copernican revolution and introduces the concept of factiality, in terms of which the cleavage between things-in-itself and things-for-us is criticized. From a scientific perspective, Meillassoux critiques the idealism and correlationism, which regard the things-in-itself as the suspension of judgment （Epoché）.The main target of Meillassoux’s criticism is correlationism, which has two versions. The weak one is represented by Kantian idealism and the strong one is represented by among others, philosophy of Heidegger and Wittgenstein. To broaden our knowledge, Meillassoux also tries to open up what he calls “the Great Outdoors”, which is not a correlate of thought. Finally, this thesis is included a comparison between Meillassoux and Zeng Tian Zong, a Taiwanese philosopher in the Japanese colonial period. Zeng’s philosophical insights serve as a foundation to assess Meillassoux’s Speculative Realism.
