Imagination and ideal of intelligence in classical science
The paper deals with the research on internal contradictions in shaping an ideal of informative intelligence in a classical scientific picture of the world of Modern times. Need of allocating an abstraction of the pure conceiving subject and spatial-temporal object of knowledge has led to impossibility of justification of reliability of such knowledge experience. Pure consciousness closed in itself and absolutely opposite geometrized object annihilated possibility of coming in between general and single as basis to establish the law. Settlement of this contradiction proved to be possible only on the way of widening the borders of consciousness due to revaluation of a role and essence of imagination (in Hume’s philosophy).
