Abstract

Philosophy of Creativity is a prolegomenon in the field of philosophical studies of creativity. The book sets forth a cross and multi-cultural point of view, emphasizing points of agreement between seminal thinkers and living traditions over the whole Earth. The seven chapters turn about the philosophical and spiritual notion of creativity. Creativity is presented as meta-paradigm, or the philosophical way that critiques and transcends paradigms, while interpreting them in light of this novel meta-paradigmatic perspective. This work draws important insights from major philosophical traditions in both the Orient and the Western world such as Buddhism, Taoism, Confucianism, Pragmatism, Existentialism, Phenomenology, and Process Philosophy.
