Abstract

What is creativity? There are many definitions, many of which involve trying different experiences, searching for new solutions, exercising our brains, and meeting and talking with new people. To be creative we need to believe in our skills and step outside our comfort zones in the search for new challenges. This book is a discussion of creativity in four parts: creativity behaviour, creativity learning, creativity in science and arts, and creativity tendencies. Chapters address such topics as creativity in children, creativity in education, creativity at the emotional level, and more.

Abstract

Der Band versammelt eine Reihe von Beiträgen, die sich mit einem bedeutenden, aber bisher in der Forschung vernachlässigten Aspekt der Wissenschaftsgeschichte und Wissenssoziologie beschäftigen: der Geschichte und Aktualität des Verhältnisses von Dilettanten und institutionalisierter Wissenschaft. Die Wissenschaft ist aus der vielfältigen und fruchtbaren Zusammenarbeit von Wissenschaftlern und interessierten Laien hervorgegangen, einer Herkunft, die heute in Vergessenheit geraten ist. Dilettanten oder Virtuosi fungierten als Mäzene, als Anreger und Mitarbeiter, als begeisterte Werber für die Akzeptanz der Wissenschaften bei Kirche, Staat und Gesellschaft. Sie betrieben die Ablösung der Wissenschaftssprache Latein durch die Volkssprachen und erzielten damit eine enorme Breitenwirkung. Zudem ermöglichten sie damit wissenschaftlich interessierten Frauen - wenn auch selten anerkannt - am Diskurs teilzunehmen. Erst mit der Aufteilung und Institutionalisierung der einzelnen wissenschaftlichen Disziplinen wurde der Amateurstatus zum Argument, um Kritik und Ideen, die nicht in den mainstream der Forschung paßten, zu disqualifizieren.

Abstract

Science is both a creative endeavor and a highly regimented one. It involves surprising, sometimes unthinkably novel ideas, along with meticulous exploration and the careful exclusion of alternatives. At the heart of this productive tension stands a human capacity typically called 'the imagination': our ability, indeed our inclination, to think up new ideas, situations, and scenarios and to explore their contents and consequences in the mind's eye. This volume explores our capacity to imagine and its implications for the philosophy and practice of science. One central aim is to integrate philosophical and psychological philosophical viewpoints and to assess central questions both empirically and theoretically. Such questions include the roles of models, metaphors, and thought experiments; the correct way to understand scientific fictions; the development of imaginative capacities; and the connection between the imagination and scientific practices such as abstraction, idealization, and counterfactual reasoning.
