According to Aristotle, phantasia is the process by which all images are presented to us—our desire for the mind to mediate anything not actually present to the senses with a mental image.
Phantasia is the name of a fictitious ancient Egyptian poetess, said to have been the creator of the Iliad and Odyssey.
Phantasia is the official transliteration of the Japanese name of an anime. It was eventually given the name The Girl from Phantasia for distribution in North America. The extra words in the title were added to prevent confusion with the Disney animated feature film, Fantasia.
