This is an impressively wide-ranging inter-disciplinary project, in which the author patiently, critically, and imaginatively engages with expressions and analyses of the imagination drawn from a variety of philosophical, artistic, and scientific sources, in order to develop an original and thought-provoking characterization of that elusive human capacity., In a compelling synthesis of ideas from many disciplines--including archaeology, developmental psychology, philosophy, literary theory, cognitive science, and art history--Jennifer Gosetti-Ferencei offers an eloquent and inclusive account of the imagination. She shows that the human imagination not only penetrates our conception of reality at ground level but also enables us to soar upward in our creative endeavors, scientific as well as artistic., This is an impressively wide-ranging interdisciplinary project, in which the author patiently, critically, and imaginatively engages with expressions and analyses of the imagination drawn from a variety of philosophical, artistic, and scientific sources, in order to develop an original and thought-provoking characterization of that elusive human capacity., Integrating the arts with the sciences of human nature is one of the most exciting frontiers of knowledge, and this exploration of imagination is a rich and creative example., This is a very good book that makes an important contribution to cognitive literary studies by integrating phenomenological theories of the imagination with contemporary cognitive science. Gosetti-Ferencei's range of reference to the philosophical literature on this topic, from Aristotle and Plato through Kant to Wittgenstein, is also impressive and well integrated into her argument. Her accounts of the philosophers she draws on are insightful, accurate, and always interesting, and the variety of examples she presents from a range of artistic forms and everyday experiences is not only entertaining but also convincing evidence for her claim of the pervasiveness of imagination., Extensive notes, a bibliography, and an index round out this extraordinary chronicle of the origins of imagination, and its transformative role in shaping human history. Highly recommended, especially for public and college library collections., Gosetti-Ferencei offers a broad-ranging account of imagination that casts it not as a single phenomenon or skill but rather as an aspect of mental life that involves multiple overlapping modes operating at multiple levels. . . . Highly recommended., A monumental achievement, Gosetti-Ferencei creates a philosophy of productive imagination that is precedent-setting. Intertwining cognitive theory and phenomenology, especially Merleau-Ponty on embodiment, her inviting, nuanced writing ranges across the history of philosophy, the arts, and literature, arriving at a beautiful discussion of the creativity of jazz. The book shows why imagination is a necessary power for social transformation. It will be the essential benchmark for all future studies., The Life of Imagination is a bold, breakthrough book. Contesting an entire tradition of regarding imagination as a separate autonomous activity located in a rarefied realm of pure mind, Gosetti-Ferencei shows imagining to be deeply embedded in concretely embodied activities of human beings as they are fully engaged in the world--a world that is itself in significant measure shaped and structured by imagination itself. She guides us with lucidity and force through the many ways in which imagining invests our lives--in dancing, sauntering on the land, in artists' re-imagination of ordinary experience, and in countless other ways. The result is a breathtaking contribution to the understanding of imagination as ingredient in all that we feel, think, and do., Jennifer Gosetti-Ferencei argues with style and insight for the ubiquity of imagination in human life across all aspects of the mind's grappling with the world, through the arts and sciences to ordinary perception. The book is engaging and accessible, remarkable for its cross-disciplinary and historical reach and for its depth and clarity of vision., This book provides the most insightful, nuanced, and expansive phenomenological account of human conscious imaginative activity I have had the pleasure to read. It probes the way imagination arises from our bodily engagement with the world to make and transform meaning via processes of inner imaging, hypothetical thinking, and our most creative acts of reconfiguring and transcending our current frames and perspectives. These creative imaginative enactments are beautifully illustrated with examples from science, painting, poetry, dance, music, and fictional narrative.

Synopsis
Imagination allows us to step out of the ordinary but also to transform it through our sense of wonder and play, artistic inspiration and innovation, or the eureka moment of a scientific breakthrough. In this book, Jennifer Anna Gosetti-Ferencei offers a groundbreaking new understanding of its place in everyday experience as well as the heights of creative achievement. The Life of Imagination delivers a new conception of imagination that places it at the heart of our engagement with the world--thinking, acting, feeling, making, and being. Gosetti-Ferencei reveals imagination's roots in embodied human cognition and its role in shaping our cognitive ecology. She demonstrates how imagination arises from our material engagements with the world and at the same time endows us with the sense of an inner life, how it both allows us to escape from reality and aids us in better understanding it. Drawing from philosophy, cognitive science, evolutionary anthropology, developmental psychology, literary theory, and aesthetics, Gosetti-Ferencei engages a spectacular range of examples from ordinary thought processes and actions to artistic, scientific, and literary feats to argue that, like consciousness itself, imagination resists reductive explanation. The Life of Imagination offers a vital account of transformative thinking that shows how imagination will be essential in cultivating a future conducive to human flourishing and to that of the life around us., The Life of Imagination delivers a new conception of imagination that places it at the heart of our engagement with the world--thinking, acting, feeling, making, and being. Jennifer Anna Gosetti-Ferencei reveals imagination's roots in embodied human cognition and its role in shaping our cognitive ecology.

The seller met two out of three categories I look for when judging my purchasing experience: how well it was packaged, how quickly it was shipped, and how properly it was described; this seller provided prompt shipping and an accurate description, but failed when it came to packaging. The item arrived in a plastic bag without any reinforcement or protection whatsoever and suffered dinged corners on multiple fronts.
