The Creation of Art: New Essays in Philosophical AestheticsBoth Lecturers Department of Moral Philosophy Berys Gaut, Berys Gaut, Paisley Livingston, Chair Professor of Philosophy and Dean of Humanities Paisley Livingston Cambridge University Press, 17/03/2003 - 295 páginas Although creativity, from Plato onwards, has been recognized as a topic in philosophy, it has been overshadowed by investigations of the meanings and values of works of art. In this new collection of essays a distinguished roster of philosophers of art redress this trend. The subjects discussed include the nature of creativity and the process of artistic creation; the role that creative making should play in our understanding and evaluation of art; relations between concepts of creation and creativity; and ideas of tradition, metaphor, genius, imagination and genre. |
