Abstract

The present paper aims to analyze the peculiarities of the syntheses of intuitive filling of intentional acts in perception and imagination, based on Husserl's Logical Investigations (1901). If in perception the thing is apprehended directly "itself", in the imagination the thing originally intended is replaced by an "analogon" that is more or less similar to the thing "itself" (it is the phenomenon of reproduction in the imagination by “likeness”). In the end, the paper compares the perceptual consciousness to the imaginative consciousness, opposing them to merely significant intentional acts (in which we find only a sign consciousness, without any intuitive filling).
