"The human imagination remains one of the last uncharted terrains of the mind. This accessible and original monograph explores a central aspect of the imagination, the creation of counterfactual alternatives to reality, and claims that imaginative thoughts are guided by the same principles that underlie rational thoughts. Research has shown that rational thought is more imaginative than cognitive scientists had supposed; in The Rational Imagination, Ruth Byrne argues that imaginative thought is more rational than scientists have imagined." "People often create alternatives to reality and imagine how events might have turned out "if only" something had been different. Byrne explores the "fault lines" of reality, the aspects of reality that are more readily changed in imaginative thoughts. She finds that our tendencies to imagine alternatives to actions, controllable events, socially unacceptable actions, causal and enabling relations, and events that come last in a temporal sequence provide clues to the cognitive processes upon which the counterfactual imagination depends. The explanation of these processes, Byrne argues, rests on the idea that imaginative thought and rational thought have much in common. Book jacket."--Jacket.

Het Wilde Ding is een poging tot het benoemen en beschrijven van vaak ongrijpbare kwaliteiten, die we kunnen ervaren in het alledaagse gebruiksvoorwerp. Het gaat niet om functie, noch om louter vorm, evenmin om een concept en al helemaal niet om een trend. Wat is het dan wel dat ervoor zorgt dat het ene glas meer ‘aura’ heeft, meer glans, meer passie, meer ‘mystieke allure’? Er lijkt een licht te schijnen langs de binnenkant der dingen. Niet het licht van de media en de marketing, die als schijnwerpers de consument verblinden, maar een helder licht dat letterlijk tot de verbeelding spreekt en het gevolg kan zijn van de methodiek en intentie van de maker. Zoals de aloude ambachtsman ontwerpt deze vanuit een eenheid met de materie en de kosmos. Hij stelt zich ten dienste. Hierbij gebeurt als het ware een overdracht van maker naar ding, waardoor het gebruiksvoorwerp bezield raakt.Dit boek poogt om deze overdracht te beschrijven en legt daarbij de nadruk op een bepaalde manier van zowel ontwerpen, als het ervaren van dingen, waarbij een eenheid tussen mens, ding en kosmos centraal staat. Deze attitude staat in schril contrast met de hedendaagse star-designer, die vaak nodeloze producten bedenkt die de consument status geven, en vooral willen verleiden tot nodeloze aankopen.Aan de hand van essays wordt enerzijds de geschiedenis van design, de nieuwste bewegingen binnen design, als een fenomenologische methodologie aangereikt, die zowel maker als consument op een hernieuwde, poëtische manier met het alledaagse gebruiksvoorwerp laten omgaan. Het zoeken naar een duurzaamheid en zingeving die verder gaat dan het ecologische aspect van materialen, is hierbij de rode draad.

The potentiality of phenomenological aesthetics is enormous, many figures have contributed to it during a time span of over a century, but this is the first work thoroughly to show its breadth, depth, and continuing fecundity. Moritz Geiger, Roman Ingarden, Fritz Kaufmann, Jean-Paul Sartre, Maurice Merleau-Ponty, and Mikel Dufrenne are the central figures and receive substantial treatment. A score of other influential individuals, including Antonio Banfi, Simone de Beauvoir, Oskar Becker, Jacques Derrida, Hans-Georg Gadamer, Martin Heidegger, Michel Henry, Dietrich von Hildebrand, Maurice Natanson, Nishida Kitaro, Jose Ortega y Gasset, Jan Patocka, Paul Ricoeur, Heinrich Rombach, Max Scheler, Alfred Schutz, Gustav Spet, and France Veber also have entries devoted to them. In addition, there are over two dozen entries on such topics such as dream, empathy, enjoyment, imagination, sensation, on style, ecology, gender, and interculturality, and then on areas including architecture, film, and theater. The introduction includes an extensive sketch of the history of phenomenological investigation in this sub-discipline of philosophy. All entries are written by the best relevant specialists, all the entries have bibliographies, and a selected bibliography for the whole is appended. This handbook will be the foundation for many more decades of investigation.
