The Structures of Imagination in the Manuscripts of Husserl and Merleau-Ponty

In this paper, the structure of fantasy will be analysed through a phenomenological analysis, by comparing the imagining self with the scenario of the fantasy, within the oppositional dialectic between representation and perception. The aim: to define the coordinates of the field of the imaginary as an opening to possible worlds. Specifically, we will refer to Husserlian and Merleau-Pontyan manuscripts on the imaginary.
