Although the concept of productive imagination plays a fundamental
role in Kant, German Idealism, Romanticism, Phenomenology and
Hermeneutics, the meaning of this central concept remains largely
undetermined. The significance of productive imagination is
therefore all-too-often either inflated or underrated. The articles
collected in this volume trace the development of productive
imagination through the history of philosophy, identify the
different meanings this concept has been ascribed in different
philosophical frameworks, and raise the question anew concerning
this concept's philosophical significance. Special attention is
given to the historical background that underlies the emergence of
productive imagination in modernity, to Kant's concept of
productive imagination, to the further development of this concept
in German Idealism, Wilhelm Dilthey, Edmund Husserl, Ernst Cassirer
and Martin Heidegger, Jean-Paul Sartre and Paul Ricoeur. A group of
leading scholars present a systematic and comprehensive reference
tool for anyone working in the fields of social imaginaries.
