What is it about?
This article looks at Sartre’s varied description of the imagination applied to some ethically awkward aspects of the nudes displayed on Top Shelf magazine racks. An expanded account on the roles of affect, belief and knowledge essential to the imagination is explored—as something that provides more than we can ever see in reality.
