Description
Creativity and Philosophy explores the nature of creativity, its value, and who or what can be creative. This collection of specially commissioned chapters by leading philosophers delves into various aspects of creativity, including its relationship to art, morality, politics, and human agency. The volume examines creativity from multiple philosophical disciplines, such as epistemology, philosophy of mind, and ethics, offering a comprehensive picture of this complex trait. It covers themes like the definition of creativity, creative failures, and suffering, as well as naturalistic explanations and the role of heuristics in creative processes. This book is an invaluable resource for anyone interested in understanding creativity, whether from a philosophical, artistic, or scientific perspective.
