Summary
Imagination has typically been understood in the Western philosophical tradition as a faculty of the mind or soul that allows it to use the matter previously delivered to it in inner or outer perception (reflection or sensation) to create novel images (broadly understood so as to include the visual, the tactile, the emotional, etc.) which it beholds within itself.
