A short but engaging exploration of our changing perception of
creativity. Creativity was once seen as the mark of mad geniuses,
troubled souls, and avant-garde eccentrics. Today, however, we
expect to find the trait thriving in and around us. Why? In
Creativity, Jan Lohmann Stephensen provides a historical and
contemporary view of creativity and explains why it is not always
the answer to every problem. From van Gogh to Springsteen, Lohmann
Stephensen explores the creative process of artists in order to
craft a new theory of creativity-marking it as a collective and
dynamic process in flux, rather than a finished product with a set
endpoint and sole creator. Finally, he warns, in the twenty-first
century, the importance that employers place on creativity has
warped the concept into a ubiquitous economic commodity.
Reflections In Reflections, a series copublished with Denmark's
Aarhus University Press, scholars deliver 60-page reflections on a
key concept that encapsulates their years of study and research.
These books present unique insights on a wide range of topics and
concepts-everything from love, trust, and play to corruption,
welfare, and sleep-that entertain and enlighten readers with
exciting discoveries and new perspectives.
