構想力（Einbildungskraft, power of imagination）一般譯為想像力，它不僅是藝術創作必要的基礎條件，亦是哲學思維不可或缺的認知與表象能力。
康德（Kant）於第一批判和第三批判論構想力之後，於19世紀掀起構想力研究熱潮，除了哲學領域之外，人類學和心理學都對構想力都有諸多的研究著作，尤其，心理學對構想力的研究力一度引領各界的對構想力的研究，直到二十世紀初海德格（Heidegger）才再將對構想力的研究主軸引回哲學領域。
本課程將以康德《純粹理性批判》於第一版有關構想力的探討為主，以《判斷力批判》為輔。由於康德於《純粹理性批判》對構想力的論述留下了詮釋的空間，因此當代哲學家出現了不同的詮釋，並且主要分為三種方向，第一種，即是海德格對康德構想力（想像力）基於主體主體性的論點，也是目前最具影響力的詮釋；第二種是以新康德學派和英美分析基於認識論的詮釋，例如德國Cassirer英國Strawson；第三種則是基於對前面兩種詮釋的反省，嘗試回到康德文本進行詮釋與解構，例如，當代學者Sarah Gibbons和Matthias Wunsch。
由於本學期上課時間有限，本課程以康德文本的探討為主，將進一步瞭解海德格和Strawson的相關詮釋，以瞭解康德有關構想力（想像力）的哲學內容及其之於哲學思維的重要性。Einbildungskraft (power of imagination) is generally translated as imagination. It is not only a necessary basic condition for artistic creation, but also an indispensable cognitive and representational ability for philosophical thinking.
After Kant discussed imaginative power in the First and Third Critiques, he set off an upsurge in the study of imaginative power in the 19th century. In addition to the field of philosophy, there are many research works on imaginative power in both anthropology and psychology. In particular, Psychology's research on imagination once led all walks of life to research on imagination. It was not until the beginning of the 20th century that Heidegger introduced the main focus of research on imagination back to the field of philosophy.
This course will focus on the discussion of imagination in the first edition of Kant's "Critique of Pure Reason", supplemented by "Critique of Judgment". Since Kant's discussion of imaginative power in the Critique of Pure Reason left room for interpretation, contemporary philosophers have come up with different interpretations, which are mainly divided into three directions. The first is Heidegger's interpretation of Kant's imaginative power ( imagination) is based on the subjectivity of the subject, which is also the most influential interpretation at present; the second is an epistemological interpretation based on the neo-Kantian school and British and American analysis, such as the German Cassirer and the British Strawson; the third is based on the previous two Reflection on interpretation, trying to return to Kant's text for interpretation and deconstruction, for example, contemporary scholars Sarah Gibbons and Matthias Wunsch.
Due to the limited class time this semester, this course focuses on the discussion of Kant's texts. We will further understand the relevant interpretations of Heidegger and Strawson to understand Kant's philosophical content about conception (imagination) and its importance to philosophical thinking.
