The Problem Of Imagination In Epistemology Between Kant And Hesserl

Philosophy is to a great extent the epistemology and theory of knowledge, and the most important problem is the general and individual problems.The epistemological problems with the traditional ontological thought is the most typical representative which was Platon’s two world theory. In this view, general and individual became the two world in the separation, if in ancient times it has more religious and political considerations.But in the modern, secular science is considered more understanding of the role in the realistic practice force.That is to say,"the kingdom of God" which is the only one in the world has been destroyed.But this change is too slow, if from imagined perspectives to the study of individual and combined with the problem, we can find that the epistemological changes gradually to ontology.Ontology in contemporary philosophy is revival and that is also illustrated, such as Heidegger’s Dasein ontology, Gadamer’s hermeneutics.Therefore, this paper is structured as follows.First of all, I traced the general and individual of this epistemological issues in ancient Greek philosophy’s performance, as well as the solution between the two how to combine the first way, namely Platon on doctrine.With the aid of a third,two absolute separation to combination way is the most typical means.In modern epistemology, such inclusions ontology or myth thought way that has not adapted to the development of scientific knowledge, the empiricist completely have abandoned in general, to the "absolute moment".Kant and Husserl is on this problem some contributions to the philosopher, the two by imagine the co-development of a kind of internal type solution.Secondly, I elaborate specifically Kant and Husserl about the thought problem.In Kant, imagination is perceptual intuition and intellectual concepts of separation which is evident.Although Kant’s Transcendental Apperception is the two that can be combined to form the final experience, but its concrete realization, or logic both requires a two feature of the third, namely the imagination.Imagination as an object is not present to the intuitive ability, and its main function is to blindly applying knowledge to provide unity the senses provide Heteropoly imagery combined with.Obviously, this is Platon’s third questions.However, Kant seems to consider an internal solution.Because of this independent comprehensive ability and intuitive,that is inextricably relations.And in the wake of graph theory, as belonging to the intellectual integrated function, imagination and understanding are more closely.While in the queue, Husserl try to adapt the essential intuition to solve the general and individual in another way.Husserl queue through intention enriches the concept of Kant’s sense of intuition and concept, so he is not required to be a transcendental imagination to be the medium between the general and the individual.The change of free imagination, Husserl proved essential, general is a lot of possibilities "nuclear".But such a relationship and what is the specific state, is the consciousness of internal time analysis time where object is highlighted to illustrate.In Husserl queue appears, grasping the essence of the general is not present, around which there is also a proactive and retention.And the individual is only anonymous and marginalized.So, in the queue general and individual are inseparable relationship, which is a kind of focus--edge domain of existence.Finally, I try to compare Kant and Husserl in the respect of imagination as reproduction and synthetic a priori, and imagination as the structure.Among them, two people among the biggest difference is that the sense of Kant transcendental imagination with an "intermediate" temperament, which is mainly associated with it as a connection and kneading of sensibility and understanding about the bridge and intermediary.But Husserl queue sense of imagination is more of a foundation, and it belongs to a very important foundation of visual behavior, which is based on perceived behavior.On the other hand, the imagination of Kant and Husserl has the transcendental and empirical difference.The former produce the appearance of non-objective and the latter is as an experience of activity of imagination, which mostly is the set of objects and object.Soin the sense of Kant imagination is more of a creative, but Husserl queue sens imagination is the reproduction function.From the above comparison, we can say that Kant and Husserl does not recognize the thought origin position.On the other hand, it is the indispensable important factor.Such a tension existing makes the imagination not essential, but provides the key link to find it.
