Abstract

We know that imagination is the ability to represent an object in intuition even when it is not present. We intuit that imagination is at the base of all a priori knowledge, that it mediates between sensitivity and understanding, or that it collects the information given by intuition to make a synthesis with it that makes knowledge possible, but we ignore the scope of its symbolic functions and the relationship that these characters can maintain with the imaginary. In this study we will relate the philosophy of the imagination of Gaston Bachelard with the approaches of Goethe and Gilbert Durand.
