Annotation -
The crucial importance of imagination follows traditionally from its status “in between” sense-perception and thought. The seminar will start with taking stock of this traditional conceptions in its most important historical versions from Aristotle to Kant. The bulk of the seminar will then consist in reading and discussion a representative sample of recent and contemporary theories of imagination, from P. F. Strawson to Amy Kind, Jennifer Church, Tamar Gendler, Ian Phillips or Kendall Walton.
