This group was created with the primary goal of facilitation discussion of the human imagination and intellect within the discipline of history. Although this group was created with historians and/or multi-disciplinary scholars studying the history of human thought and imagination, it may be of interest to those outside this area (those from the disciplines of Literary Studies, Anthropology, Philosophy and the Social Sciences for example).

By creating this body of material, it is hoped that students, academics and interested individuals from diverse disciplines may work together to better understand and express ideas pertaining to human life and behaviour.
