In a radical attempt to explore and restructure the presuppositions in any philosophy of language. Edouard Morot-Sir examines such current concepts as "natural languages," "linguistic necessity," and "implicite, explicite." Challenging such thinkers as Bergson, Heidegger, Chomsky, and Rorty, he argues that reference is the fundamental act by which signs and referents exist and make sense, and that "any linguistic expression belongs to the experience of reference." As such, he writes, reference is the center of human cultural existence. All value judgments - whether religious, scientific, moral, or artistic - should be conceived of as positive or negative reference. He considers this work the necessary first step for a new form of criticism he proposes to call "reference criticism."

From the Foreword: "Like a musical fugue, Morot-Sir's meditations lead up to impressive grand conclusions on religion and the arts as universal referents. . . . In this dense and exquisitely erudite essay, the author returns to the philosophical starting point of his professional career, as expressed in his th�se d'�tat on La Pens�e negative (1947). Without overly simplifying his approach, one could qualify it as a kind of vector analysis of referential practices. Central to his thought is the paradox that reference (and with it, language) can but refer to itself. Equally central is his 'will--if wavering at times--to remain a coherent and stubborn prisoner of language,' i.e., systematically to explore the full range of linguistic experience, the dynamics of the act of naming. Using once again the meditation as his preferred mode of expression, Morot-Sir offers in this second volume a fitting complement to the challenges he issued and the expectations he raised in volume I of The Imagination of Reference." --Raymond Gay-Crosier, University of Florida At the convergence of philosophy and psychology, this work continues the venture of "meditating the linguistic condition" which Edouard Morot-Sir began in The Imagination of Reference, this time concentrating on "perceiving, indicating, naming." Together, the two volumes constitute the intellectual autobiography of a philosopher and his response to Merleau-Ponty's famous book on phenomenology. While the first book examined psychological, ontological, and epistemological presuppositions, this one explores the positive consequences of reference in action, with examples from religion, painting, and poetry. Morot-Sir visualizes human imagination as a field marked by four corners: perception, conception, memory, and judgment. Acting as point of intersection and center of gravitation in the center of that field, reference eventually reclaims the primacy of imagination. "We are namers and nameds," he concludes. "Without names we would be blind, deaf, and mute." Edouard Morot-Sir, who died in 1993, was the Kenan Professor Emeritus of French at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, and the author of the companion volume, The Imagination of Reference: Meditating the Linguistic Condition (UPF, 1993). He was also the author of many articles and books, including La Pens�e negative, Philosophie et mystique, La M�taphysique de Pascal, and Les Mots de Jean-Paul Sartre. He taught logic and the philosophy of science at the universities of Bordeaux and Lille and served for twelve years as the cultural counselor to the French Embassy in the United States.

The human imagination manifests in countless different forms. We imagine the possible and the impossible. How do we do this so effortlessly? Why did the capacity for imagination evolve and manifest with undeniably manifold complexity uniquely in human beings? This handbook reflects on such questions by collecting perspectives on imagination from leading experts. It showcases a rich and detailed analysis on how the imagination is understood across several disciplines of study, including anthropology, archaeology, medicine, neuroscience, psychology, philosophy, and the arts. An integrated theoretical-empirical-applied picture of the field is presented, which stands to inform researchers, students, and practitioners about the issues of relevance across the board when considering the imagination. With each chapter, the nature of human imagination is examined - what it entails, how it evolved, and why it singularly defines us as a species.
