The Creative Process: Stories from the Arts and Sciences asks how
celebrated works of art and breakthroughs in science came to be.
What was the first inkling? What were the steps and missteps along
the way? How was the process experienced by the creative person as
it proceeded? And what are the implications for the psychology of
the creative process? Each chapter focuses on a specific creative
endeavor, situating the work in the context of domain, culture, and
historical era. Then it traces the development of the work-from
what we know of its beginnings to its fulfillment. Qualitative
materials-interviews, notebooks, diaries, sketches, drafts, and
other writings-allow a story of the creative process as lived to
emerge. The narratives exemplify established concepts in the
psychology of creativity, propose broadening some, reveal the need
for modification, and suggest new ones. Application of
phenomenological frameworks illuminate the episodes in new ways as
well. The case study approach proves again that each episode is
unique, yet themes and variations come into view when the episodes
are considered together in a final reflection. From Darwin's theory
to an unusual jazz sound, here are 11 fascinating stories of how
specific works took shape. Psychologists, students interested in
creativity, and all those intrigued by the process in any creative
field will find this book essential reading.
