Reviews
'a timely collection for specialists, one that should be of interest to anyone working on Kant or German Idealism and Romanticism.' Jessica Williams, Journal of the History of Philosophy
'This is a work for students and scholars of the history of philosophy and those interested in exploring the role and relevance of the imagination for thinking through contemporary problems in epistemology, aesthetics, and other areas of philosophical inquiry ... Highly recommended.' J. A. Fischel, Choice Reviews
'The 11 essays of The Imagination in German Idealism and Romanticism represent the first systematic attempt to provide a coherent picture ... of the concept of imagination across some of the most influential years of the history of philosophy. This volume plots a course through the most significant figures of German Idealism and Romanticism ... toward a variety of themes which can be said to mirror the variety of roles that the imagination plays.' Luigi Filieri, Journal of Transcendental Philosophy
