By offering an original elucidation of the notion of the
imagination in the writings ofImmanuel Kant, Johann Fichte and
Cornelius Castoriadis, this book addresses and brings to the fore
the significance of the imagination as the ontological source of
human creation.Principally inspired by Castoriadis's revolutionary
elucidation of the imagination and the imaginary, this book
actively contributes to this neglected line of enquiry by exposing
deep lines of continuity and rupture both within and between the
revolutionary writings of Kant, Fichte, and Castoriadis. 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."
