CFP: Synthese Topical Collection: "Imagination and Its Limits"


Guest Editors:

  • Amy Kind (Claremont McKenna College)

Imagination is at the center of contemporary debates in the philosophy of mind. The ontological status of mental imagery, the epistemological status of imagined scenarios in terms of counterfactual and modal claims, and the relationship between imaginative ability and phenomenal knowledge are all rigorously debated in analytic literature. Likewise, the nature and function of imagination is an important and lively area of research in neuroscience and psychology.

We invite contributions for the Synthese Topical Collection titled “Imagination and Its Limits.”

The deadline for submissions has been extended to July 15, 2020.
