Abstract

Kiyoshi Miki (1897-1946) studied the aspect of imagination as for mythology, system, technology, and experience through The Logic of Imagination. In each theme, pathos and logos were involved each other. Among the involvement between pathos and logos various forms with imagination have been produced in history. Based on Miki's vision for imagination, in this paper I concider Miki's perspective for the themes concerning the power of imagination in Kant's critical philosophy. At each stage of the Kant's deduction in that case I will analyze how Kant found out the modeling power of imagination at the process of the deduction. For Kant's regulation of imagination I will think about how Miki considered the Kant's deployment of imagination compared with Mild's own logic of imagination. I will try to understand how Kant gave forms to imagination according to the each stage of his logic of imagination. Through such multi-layered examination for imagination as described above, I will be able to pursuit the significancies and possibilities of the modeling power of imagination.
