Beginning with Kant’s hesitation in describing the productive imagination as a creative power, this book traces these lines of continuity and rupture through an elucidation of the form and content of Fichte’s philosophical system, known as the Wissenschaftslehre, and through an elucidation of Castoriadis’s remarkable concept of the radical imaginary.Engaging with these lines of continuity and rupture allows this book to contribute to the landscape of thinking by offering a new elucidation of the imagination in the formof the “embodied imagination.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePREFACE: Written by Professor John Rundell \u003cbr\u003ePRELUDE: The Indeterminacy of Human Creation \u003cbr\u003eFIRST MOVEMENT: The “Unknown” Seed of Indeterminacy—The Imagination in the Writings of Immanuel Kant \u003cbr\u003eCHAPTER ONE: The “Unknown” Seed of Indeterminacy. \u003cbr\u003eCHAPTER TWO: The Power of “Synthesis”—First Edition of the Critique of Pure Reason \u003cbr\u003eCHAPTER THREE: The Power of “Representing”—Second Edition of the Critique of Pure Reason.\u003cbr\u003eCHAPTER FOUR: The Power of Exhibition—Schematism of the Pure Concepts of the Understanding.\u003cbr\u003eCHAPTER FIVE: The “Feeling of Life”—Critique of Judgment.\u003cbr\u003eCHAPTER SIX: The Creative Power of the “Productive Imagination” \u003cbr\u003eSECOND MOVEMENT: The “Absolutely Incomprehensible” Seed of Indeterminacy.
