IMAGINAL AND IMAGINARY IN THE ANGEOLOGY OF THE MIDDLE AGES
IMAGINAL AND IMAGINARY IN THE ANGEOLOGY OF THE MIDDLE AGES

Summary/Abstract: In this article I set out to highlight the connection between two terms, namely the terms "imaginal" and "imaginary". The analysis of these two terms will be made through the prism of some philosophers from the Middle Ages, especially St. Augustine and Saint Thomas Aquinas. At the same time, I will emphasize the idea that the imaginary is seen as an utopian unreality that offers rather an illusion and I will try to show that the imaginary world is real, and it exists only as a result of the relationship between itself and the seeker have a special faculty in the family of imagination. Also, the general theme of this article will revolve around angels and the world in which they manifest.
