Imagem e consciência na obra de Jean-Paul Sartre: uma análise fenomenológica da “Família das Imagens”

Abstract

This study aims to construct an analysis of the "family of images" in Jean-Paul Sartre's work "The Imaginary," exploring its key concepts and contributions to understanding the imaginative consciousness inherent in human affirmation. The adopted methodology includes a literature review of the first part of the book titled "The Real" and the "Conclusion," where the thinker provides a rich construction of ontological concepts of image, their processes in consciousness, and a proposal for transitioning to phenomenology to explain unresolved concepts within psychology. Specific objectives include presenting Sartre's encounter with phenomenology, addressing knowledge and the problem of self in consciousness, sensation and image, the family of images, its characteristics, and its members; image, portrait, caricature, sign and portrait, consciousness of imitations, schematic drawings, image in stains, hypnagogic images, and mental images.
