It is commonly believed that Spinoza is a rationalist philosopher who considers imagination as the lowest kind of knowledge and of the least importance. Through examining two important ideas of Spinoz’s, i.e., imaginary concepts of free man and democracy, and by showing the importance of these ideas in Spinoza’s philosophy, I argue that, contrary to received view, imagination has a very important role in Spinoza’s philosophical system.
