Reviews
Productive imagination is a concept that has long deserved a special study. Saulius Geniusas traces its importance from Kant and Husserl through 20th century German and French phenomenology. With sweeping scholarship and penetrating analysis, Geniusas opens our eyes to the nature of productive imagination and its relation to embodiment, language, and subjectivity. -- David Carr, Professor Emeritus, Emory University Saulius Geniusas' book offers a radically new investigation of the vital relationship between imagination and the body. The writing is clear, persuasive, and extensive in its scholarly range. An important study of indispensable drives of human creativity. -- Richard Kearney, Charles Seelig Professor in Philosophy, Boston College
