Kant's critical philosophy is rife with conflicting and aporetic
doctrines. Amongst several difficult doctrines, one of the most
salient and obscure discussions surrounds Kant's view of the
imagination, Einbildungskraft. One finds Kant's initial discussion
of the imagination in the section entitled the Transcendental
Deduction in his Critique of Pure Reason; by Kant's own admission,
the section that cost him the most labor. Instrumental in these
most critical passagesis Kant's discussion of the imagination, but,
due to revisions and emendations and a seeming change in doctrine
from the 1st to the 3rd Critique, Kant's considered view of the
imagination remains unclear. Many scholars eschew the discussion
altogether, considering it arcana of an obsolete faculty
pyschology. Even prominent Kant scholars have typically overlooked
or marginalized pivotal sections in Kant's works in order to avoid
dealing with this issue. Recently, however, a new interest in the
imagination has resurfaced. This volume is a collection of essays
that addresses the many uses of imagination throughout Kant's
entire critical corpus, and intends to gain a better understanding
of this lacuna.
