    The imagination I. A. Richard

       Literary criticism has found itself as an important and independent branch in established New horizon. Number of scholar have emerged as a critiques and interpreted literature in order to help a common considerate as 'the father of new criticism'. I.A.richard has contributed in the development of literary criticism by his destination essay like his practical criticism four type of meaning imagination and many other. At present we want concerned with his view on the imagination.

Six sense of imagination

     According I.A. Richards we can define third term imagination at least in six distinct senses. Hi discuss various meaning and concept of the same term and then considered a particular concept the most important. I.A. Richards, it is  convenient to. separate then before passing on to consider the work which is most important.
- Production of image
- The use of figurative language
- The narrower sence
- Inventiveness imagination
- Scientific imagination
- The sense of musical delight

Production of imagination

     In the first concept of imagination is a very common and that is the production of various image usually visual image. The production of various image and visual image are the most commonest and the most interesting thing which is reflected by imagination.

The use of figurative language

   Another concept of imagination is the use of figurative language. People who naturally employee metaphor and simile especially when it is of an unusual kind are same to have imagination. It should not be overloaded that metaphor and simile are the Two which may be considerate together. They have great variety of function of speech. This is the most common scientific use of metaphor full stop it is in imagenative language and in poetry. An example 
       Shelly’s “dome of many coloured glass”

  It is only example which spread to mind. some attitude of speaker to his subject or to his audience is using the metaphor as a tool of expression. Gibbon said..

‘ the freedom of waiting has indeed Proval a strict tribe but as I was safe from the stings I was soon accustomed to the buzzing of the honest.’

There a review metaphors whose effect can be traced to the logic reaction. Metaphor is a method by which the great variety of element can be brought into the experience.

The narrower sense

    A narrower sense is that in which sympathetic reproduction of other people's state of mind. Particularly there emotional state of mind is imagination can be found in plays. The dramatist say that the critique things that is a person behave unfortunately.

“ you haven’t enough imagination”.

This kind of imagination is plainly a necessity for communication bed play to be successful require it as much as good plays.

Inventiveness imagination

   It is an another important science stop it bring the element together which are not connected according to this 'Edison' is said to have imagination and any fantastic romance will show it in 'Excelsis'. Crazy people will beat any of us at combine odd Idea.

The scientific imagination

    Fifth concept according to I.A. Richards is the scientific imagination. This is an order of experience in definite experience in   definite ways and for purpose not necessarily deliberated and conscious. But limited to a given field. The technical victory of the art are the examples of this kind of imagination.

The sense of musical delight ( Coleridge)

    Finally we come to the sense of imagination with which we are here most concerned. It is a closely connected with the Coleridge's concept of imagination. It is Coleridge's  great contribution to critical theory . In his words imagination means..

‘ the sympathetic and magical power to while we have exclusively appreciate the name is imagination'
  It is a sense of novelty and freshness with old and familiar object a more than usual state of emotion with more that usual order. The sense of musical delight and modified a series of thought by someone pre- dominant thought or feeling these are gifts of imagination.
