Supposition is frequently invoked in many fields within philosophy,
including aesthetics, philosophy of mind, philosophy of science and
epistemology. However, there is a striking lack of consensus about
the nature of supposition. What is supposition? Is supposition a
sui generis type of mental state or is it reducible to some other
type of mental state? These are the main questions Margherita
Arcangeli explores in this book. She examines the characteristic
features of supposition, along the dimensions of phenomenology and
emotionality, among others, in a journey through the imaginative
realm. An informed answer to the question "What is supposition?"
must involve an analysis of imagination, since supposition is so
often defined in opposition to the latter. She assesses rival
explanations of supposition putting forward a novel view, according
to which the proper way of seeing supposition is as a primitive
type of imaginative state. Supposition and the Imaginative Realm: A
Philosophical Inquiry will be of great interest to students of
philosophy of psychology, aesthetics, philosophy of mind,
philosophy of science and epistemology.
