The Nature and Function of Imagination in Hume and Kant. [link]Paper  abstract   bibtex   
The nature and function of 'imagination' occupy a central place in the philosophies of Hume and Kant. Hume could have made a distinction, similar to that of Kant's, between transcendental or productive imagination, and empirical or reproductive imagination if he had so wished. But he deliberately refrained from it because doing that would not permit him to arrive at certain concepts that he greatly valued, and which were dear to him.
