Creativity pervades human life. It is the mark of individuality,
the vehicle of self-expression, and the engine of progress in every
human endeavor. It also raises a wealth of neglected and yet
evocative philosophical questions: What is the role of
consciousness in the creative process? How does the audience for a
work for art influence its creation? How can creativity emerge
through childhood pretending? Do great works of literature give us
insight into human nature? Can a computer program really be
creative? How do we define creativity in the first place? Is it a
virtue? What is the difference between creativity in science and
art? Can creativity be taught? The new essays that comprise The
Philosophy of Creativity take up these and other key questions and,
in doing so, illustrate the value of interdisciplinary exchange.
Written by leading philosophers and psychologists involved in
studying creativity, the essays integrate philosophical insights
with empirical research.
