Called the "philosopher of the surrealists," as he tried to do a similar philosophical project to the surrealists: combine realism with the dream world and reveries. Trained as a chemist. Has a scientific bent, but turned continental philosopher. Early work is psychoanalysis in a vein similar to Jung insofar as it analyses things like earth, water, and fire as kinds of symbolism. Mid to later philosophy turns to revery, daydreaming, and poetics as a kind of phenomenology. Famously known among architects for his work on the poetics of the house: basements become mysterious underworlds, chests and cupboards as entries into discovery. Influenced major continentals including Deleuze. Fin.

He is probably educated in philosophy from a "Continental" POV, which often means that philosophers are praised based more on their originality or the attractiveness of their philosophy rather than how well they argue for their positions or whether what they say corresponds to reality. There is a reason why the Continental consensus on the greatest 20th century philosopher is Heidegger but nobody actually identifies as a Heideggerian.

But Spinozist metaphysics require a rationalist epistemology for its claims to be justified. You can't simultaneously say that all knowledge derives from experience and have in your world-picture self caused beings and principles of sufficient reason

I'm not sure I grasped your point correctly, but what I get from your post is that you think Platonism about mathematical entities is retarded, assume that this is my position, and then accuse me of having a worldview that doesn't correspond to reality? If so, I am not sure why would you assume that. My bet would be that you are educated in philosophy from a Continental POV and your only acquaintance with Analytical Philosophy is some vague idea about some weirdos who are obsessed with science, are really naive about philosophical issues, and have been debunked by the postmodernists anyway, or something like that.
