How the Ancients Modernized Imagination -- Conclusion -- Notes preface -- Bibliography -- IndexBefore imagination became the transcendent and creative faculty promoted by the Romantics, it was for something quite different. Not reserved to a privileged few, imagination was instead considered a universal ability that each person could direct in practical ways. To imagine something meant to form in the mind a replica of a thing—its taste, its sound, and other physical attributes. At the end of the Renaissance, there was a movement to encourage individuals to develop their ability to imagine vividly. Within their private mental space, a space of embodied, sensual thought, they could meditate, pray, or philosophize. Gradually, confidence in the self-directed imagination fell out of favor and was replaced by the belief that the few—an elite of writers and teachers—should control the imagination of the many. This book seeks to understand what imagination meant in early modern Europe, particularly in early modern France, before the Romantic era gave the term its modern meaning. The author explores the themes surrounding early modern notions of imagination (including hostility to imagination) through the writings of such figures as Descartes, Montaigne, François de Sales, Pascal, the Marquise de Sévigné, Madame de Lafayette, and Fénelon.French literature16th centuryHistory and criticismFrench literature17th centuryHistory and criticismFrench literature18th centuryHistory and criticismImagination in literaturePhilosophy, French16th centuryPhilosophy, French17th centuryPhilosophy, French18th centuryImagination (Philosophy)Electronic books.French literatureHistory and criticism.French literatureHistory and criticism.French literatureHistory and criticism.Imagination in literature.Philosophy, FrenchPhilosophy, FrenchPhilosophy, FrenchImagination (Philosophy)840.9/384Lyons John D.1946-859009MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910450468003321Before imagination1917192UNINA03469nam 22006495 450 991062435480332120241120180402.09783031154577303115457610.1007/978-3-031-15457-7(CKB)5700000000299762(DE-He213)978-3-031-15457-7(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/93969(MiAaPQ)EBC7133284(Au-PeEL)EBL7133284(OCoLC)1352966261(EXLCZ)99570000000029976220221107d2023 u| 0engurnn#008mamaatxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierDigital and Strategic Innovation for Alpine Health Tourism Natural Resources, Digital Tools and Innovation Practices from HEALPS 2 Project /edited by Daniele Spoladore, Elena Pessot, Marco Sacco1st ed. 2023.ChamSpringer Nature2023Cham :Springer International Publishing :Imprint: Springer,2023.1 online resource (IX, 130 p. 27 illus., 13 illus. in color.)SpringerBriefs in Applied Sciences and Technology,2191-53189783031154560 3031154568 This open access book presents a set of practical tools and collaborative solutions in multi-disciplinary settings to foster the Alpine Space health tourism industry’s innovation and competitiveness. The proposed solutions emerge as the result of the synergy among health, environment, tourism, digital, policy and strategy professionals. The approach underlines the pivotal role of a sustainable and ecomedical use of Alpine natural resources for health tourism destinations, and highlights the need of integrating aspects of natural resources’ healing effects, a shared knowledge of Alpine assets through digital solutions, and frames strategic approaches for the long-term development of the sector. The volume exploits the results of the three-years long EU research project HEALPS 2, which involved several stakeholders from the health tourism, healthcare and sustainable tourism industries. This book is relevant for health tourism destinations and facilities (hotels, clinics, wellness and spa companies), regional and local authorities (policy makers), business support organizations, researchers involved in digital healthcare and geoinformatics.SpringerBriefs in Applied Sciences and Technology,2191-5318TourismMedical economicsMedical informaticsTourism EconomicsHealth EconomicsHealth InformaticsTourism.Medical economics.Medical informatics.Tourism Economics.Health Economics.Health Informatics.338.4791Spoladore Danieleedt1314655Spoladore Danieleedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtPessot Elenaedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtSacco Marcoedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910624354803321Digital and Strategic Innovation for Alpine Health Tourism3031895UNINA
