immaginazione
Sign in to saveAlso known as faculty of imagining
capacità di rappresentarsi cose non presenti in atto alla sensazione
Imagination is the ability to create mental representations of sensations, objects, or experiences without direct sensory input—such as picturing scenes in your mind or recalling memories with modifications. It matters because it allows you to mentally experience things beyond what you directly perceive, encompassing not just visual images but also sounds, emotions, and thoughts, whether based on past experiences or entirely invented scenarios.

Per immaginazione, traduzione del termine eikasia (in greco antico: εἰκασία), s'intende la capacità di pensare, indipendentemente da ogni precisa elaborazione logica, il contenuto di un’esperienza sensoriale, in occasione di un particolare stato affettivo e, spesso, riguardante un tema fisso. Fantasy, di Lisa Wray (1979), riconducibile alle atmosfere oniriche dell'arte metafisica.
