This book defends that the pursuit of originality constitutes one
of the most important characteristics of creativity, but that
originality refers, etymologically, to both origin and originary.
Hence, the book is structured into two parts, dedicated,
respectively, to the creative categories of origin and the creative
categories of originary. Within the former are creation myths,
games - the origin of all cultural activity, the dialectic
chaos-order, axial civilizations - the germ of our time, and the
struggle between generations - a factor of social transformation,
and, within the second, creative capitalism, creative work in the
context of the global economy of risk and uncertainty, and
representative democracy. However, these two concepts are not
isolated, but deeply interrelated, in a way that explains how
creative originality builds a temporal narrative. It has been
dislocated in late modernity and, with it, creativity has been
broken.
