Abstract

HEBECHE, Luiz. The concept of imagination in Wittgenstein. Nat. hum. [online]. 2003, vol.5, n.2, pp.393-421. ISSN 1517-2430.

This paper proposes to demonstrate that the concept of imagination, as it is conceived by philosophical or psychological mentalist doctrines, is a grammatical illusion, which can be solved by means of a movement back to the "rough ground" of ordinary language.

Keywords : Wittgenstein; Imagination; Grammatical illusion; Ordinary language.
