Summary/Abstract: Imagination is the faculty of the human psychic most frequently criticized in the past centuries by philosophers. One of the reasons for this damnation is the fact that it seems irrational and often unsubordinated to lucid thinking. Not even today is it completely understood but, unlike in the previous eras, it is regarded with respect and interest, manifesting fascination over our contemporaries.
