Schema
Schema
(Gr. schema) Figure, external form or structural plan, specifically, in Aristotle’s logic, a syllogistic figure. — G.R.M.
In Kant’s Critique of Pure Reason (Tr. Analytic)The procedure of the imagination by which the categories of the understanding are applied to the manifold of sensuous intuitions. Imagination, working with the pure form of time, connects sense and understanding. This is possible because the imagination contains an element of both sense and understanding, and thus is capable of formulating the rules and procedures by means of which sensuous representations may be subsumed under pure concepts. See Kantianism. — O.F.K.
