Some theories are compelling if the universe is meaningful as a whole, but they make no sense if it is not. Raymond C. Barfield discusses conditions that would be necessary if the universe is meaningful as a whole, and then develops a theory of philosophical imagination in light of that starting place. The theory moves toward the conclusion that if the universe is meaningful as a whole, the concept of the analogia entis, the analogy of being, illuminates philosophical imagination in a way that changes our understanding of its function and potential, along with the value of its discoveries through the things it creates.Studies in historical philosophy ;2.Meaning (Philosophy)Universals (Philosophy)Imagination (Philosophy)Meaning (Philosophy)Universals (Philosophy)Imagination (Philosophy)128.3Barfield Raymond CProfaut1835897Gungov AlexanderedtVerene DonaldedtMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910960205703321The Poetic Apriori: Philosophical Imagination in a Meaningful Universe4413421UNINA
