Humes contemporary Thomas Reid criticized Humes theory of the imagination on numerous fronts.

Hume seems to think that each of us can observe the basic imaginative functions taking place in our minds. Hume explains that this is because our moral sentiments derive from a more sophisticated form of sympathy, in which we correct our sentiments by a kind of reflection (T 3.3.1.17; SBN 583). It is due to this associative relation, Hume claims, that the sight of billiard balls in this situation now causes us to form such an idea (T 1.3.6.1216; SBN 9294).

WebDavid Hume proposed three different laws of association: resemblance, contiguity in time or place, and cause or effect (Hume, 1748/1952).

Also thanks to this resemblance, an idea of one of these dogs tends to be followed by one or more ideas of the other dogs. First, he explains sympathy in terms of the same two basic imaginative functions: association and the transmission of force and vivacity among associated perceptions. The third part of our probable reasoning is the transmission of force and liveliness to our idea, so that we believenot just entertain the thoughtthat the billiard balls will collide and that the second one will start to move. These purely descriptive and intermediate interpretations both allow that the imagination may be a source of justified beliefs, in Humes view. This article starts by explaining Humes views about thought in general. This is not a published paper. Shortly after writing these sections, Hume seems to have changed his view about the nature of belief. It takes courage to live honestly, wisely, true to yourself and true to your desire for more.

The three relations of resemblance, contiguity, and cause Therefore, in his Meditations, Descartes aims to help his readers achieve clear and distinct conceptions of the soul and the body by leading their minds away from the senses and imagination (as he explains in the Synopsis to the Meditations). Hume indicates that two basic functions of the inclusive imagination explain why we project our impression, or determination, onto the causally related events themselves. After Forever - Discord [Gigakoops].rar. But it is not clear what this means: in what sense do fictions involve an improper and inexact use of our ideas? Hume thinks that the inclusive imagination naturally associates some perceptions with others. Sketches a revised, neo-Humean theory of the imagination, designed to meet several objections to Humes own views. Hume suggests that we cannot justify these causal inferences. For example, we have no doubt that the sun will rise tomorrow. I can imagine a melody made up of notes that I have experienced before, but occurring in an order that I have never experienced before. For example, he writes that tastethe faculty which gives us our sentiments of aesthetic beauty and deformity, and of moral vice and virtuehas a productive faculty, and gilding or staining all natural objects with the colours, borrowed from internal sentiment, raises in a manner a new creation (second Enquiry, Appendix 1, paragraph 21).

In the past, whenever we have observed billiard balls in similar situationsone ball hurtling towards another, unobstructed, ballwe have observed the balls to collide, and the second start to move. Hume also adds that, in its associative transitions, the inclusive imagination gravitates towards objects that are more important, or closer to oneself in space and time. Therefore, it is especially important to him to explain how our minds carry out this kind of reasoning. Hume thinks that associative links due to causation transmit a higher degree of force and liveliness than those due to resemblance or contiguity (T 1.3.9.8; SBN 110). In contrast, Hume writes that our impressionsthe perceptions that our internal and external senses present to our mindsare clear and evident (T 1.2.3.1; SBN 33). Next, Hume distinguishes between relations of ideas and matters of fact. In his Treatise of Human Nature (1740), he put forward the first elaborate analysis of the concept in Western philosophy. Webexplains constant conjunction as a new relation betwixt cause and effect above and beyond mere contiguity and succession (Hume 87). (Hume does not specify whether he has the inclusive or exclusive imagination in mind. Hume suggests habit, and not reason, enforces a perception of necessary connection between events. 
He presumably thinks that his own account of abstract ideas undermines this reason: it shows that the inclusive imagination can explain our abstract ideas; so, there is no need to posit an additional faculty of pure intellect.

We can grasp thoughts like all dogs are mammals and all triangles are shapes. As a result, our idea becomes a belief. This book will be of interest to researchers working in syntax, semantics, pragmatics, discourse, computational linguistics, psycholinguistics, cognitive science, and philosophy of language. Hume thinks that the main reason why other philosophers have posited a faculty of pure intellect, distinct from the inclusive imagination, is to explain our abstract ideas, and to show how we can form an idea of a triangle, for instance, which shall neither be an isosceles nor a scalenum, nor be confind to any particular length or proportion of sides (T 1.3.1.7; SBN 72). This interdependence is reflected in the central social-psychological principles that Hume and Spinoza employ, respectively sympathy and affectuum imitatio. But this belief is not due to observation: we cannot have observed the suns rising tomorrow, because it has not happened yet. Likely, he thinks that any clear idea formed in the inclusive imaginationbe it by reason, or by the exclusive imaginationrepresents something that is possible.).

Perhaps Humes Skeptical Claim means that reason, conceived in his opponents way, cannot explain our beliefs about unobserved things; hence, these beliefs must instead be explained by the inclusive imaginationspecifically, by the sub-faculty of the inclusive imagination by which we carry out demonstrative and probable reasoning. Some commentators solve this puzzle by pointing to passages where Hume seems to distinguish two kinds of imaginative thought: conceiving and supposing (T 1.2.6.89, 1.4.2.56; SBN 6768, 218). Rather than condemn them entirely, Hume simply reduces their scope, suggesting that there is nothing in them that goes beyond an observation of constant conjunction between two events.
