Husserl: Imagination

In Ideas 1, for the thousandth time arguing against psychological roots of pure knowledge. What about the “bathing centaur” objection? Well, true, this thing does not exist and is entirely a product of our imagination, but (cool part) one should not confuse a Wesen and a Wesensbewustsein,  i.e., production of an essence with that of essence awareness. In other words, there is no psychological creation of essences (which is the adversarial argument), imagination is only producing awareness of these essences.
