  • Creativity Book 2013
    CREATIVITY : PRODUCT , PROCESS , PERSONALITY , ENVIRONMENT AND TECHNOLOGY 2 SANDRA I. KAY DESIGNING ELEGANT PROBLEMS FOR CREATIVE THINKING Creative thinkers seek elegance in their work. An aesthetic sensibility accompanies creative work from the original vision or motivation to its use in identifying what many creators describe as an ‘elegant solution’. Examples of this characteristic can be identified in most, if not all fields. If one defines creative thought in develop- mental terms, as “a process in which the individual finds, defines, or discovers an idea or problem not predetermined by the situation or task” (Kay 1989, p.65), then the importance of guidance by an aesthetic sensibility becomes more visible. We can see elegant solutions all around us. This chapter will look at what has been said about elegant solutions by a few creative producers and a few examples of elegant solutions that can affect our environment prior to introducing the con- cept of elegant problems. Elegant Problems address the what, not the how of creative teaching and learning. Aesthetic Sensibility, Deep Problems and Elegant Solutions in the Sci- ences The ability to appreciate the beauty of a solution has been noted by scientists, mathematicians, and artists. The term ‘Elegant Solution” is used across disciplines and time to describe the result of creative thought. For example, Campbell (1960) cites its importance with the words of the mathematician Poincare: The useful combinations are precisely the most beautiful, I mean those best able to charm this special sensibility that all mathematicians know, but of which the profane are so ignorant as often to be tempted to smile at it….

The books you read will be used in your English class during the first few weeks of the first trimester. As you read, we urge you to remember that the art of reading is a creative act, a collaboration between reader and writer. Hold a dialogue with these books: question, argue, disagree; underline those passages that exhilarate you as well as those that infuriate you. Keep a notebook to jot down your imme- diate responses to each of these works and write questions that you want to discuss in your English classes. Encourage your family and friends to join you in these reading experiences. A number of the books on this list have been made into movies, many of them wonderful in their own right. Seeing a movie instead of reading the book, however, will not prepare you for your teacher’s assignment related to that book, nor will it replace the unique experience of interacting with a specific text.

  • Play-Thing of the Times: Critical Review of the Reception of Daoism in the West1
    JOCP132 9/3/2003 5:45 PM Page 469 karl-heinz pohl PLAY-THING OF THE TIMES: CRITICAL REVIEW OF THE RECEPTION OF DAOISM IN THE WEST1 The Euro-Dao that can be spoken of is not the true Euro-Dao, etc. —Peter Sloterdijk As valid as the first sentence of the Daodejing may be to any follower of the Dao—the Dao that can be spoken of is not an eternal truth but always mere interpretation—as meaningful seems to be Sloterdijk’s pun on this Daoist key notion to the chronicler of the Dao reception in the West. For about 200 years, interpreters from the European cultural background have appropriated the Far Eastern import in amazingly different ways, following, on the one hand, and as was to be expected, mostly the prevailing zeitgeist. On the other hand, the reception, of course, was also influenced by the continuously devel- oping knowledge in this field through translations and scholarly research by Sinologists. As will be shown below, an increase in knowl- edge about Daoism, however, did not necessarily lead to a deeper understanding of the matter. Yet this intellectual pitfall is built into the Daoist system of thought:Those who too cleverly try to probe into its teaching will be caught in the “fish trap” of words (Zhuangzi), the only “way” to the true Dao probably being silence. Hence, the unearthing of the true “Euro-Daoism” shall not and cannot be the object of this study.The point is rather to follow—some- what in the vein of a “Derri-Daoism”—the “trace” that Daoism has left in Europe and in North America during the past 200 years.

New York: Viking Press, 2003. xxiv + 792 pp. Diarmaid MacCulloch. The Reformation: A History. New York: Viking, 2003. xxiv + 750 pp. $34.95 (cloth), ISBN 978-0-670-03296-9; $20.00 (paper), ISBN 978-0-14-303538-1. Reviewed by Susan Wabuda (Department of History, Fordham University) Published on H-Albion (November, 2005) Reformation Resurgens The Reformation was such a startling break in the cultural and political fabric of Europe that it has often had to be understood in slices. So vast in its consequences, historians and theologians have frequently chosen to explore it in terms of their own discreet specialties. The lives and writings of its leaders, and the efforts of its opponents, have been examined in countless works. Nearly every religious affiliation has used it to focus on its own history, until the Reformation has sometimes seemed like a hostage to denominational studies. To explore the entire breadth of the Reformation without partiality or favor, to come to grips with the challenges of source material that stretches across several linguistic boundaries, and to deal with the historiographical and denominational issues of interpretation, are all enormous tasks. In The Reformation, Diarmaid MacCulloch has written a superb, nuanced account of what he terms "the greatest fault line to appear in Christian culture since the Latin and Greek halves of the Roman Empire went their separate ways a thousand years before" (p. xviii). As an editor of The Journal of Ecclesiastical History, one of the premier quarterlies in the field, MacCulloch is well placed to survey that fault line through the latest scholarly trends.

Roper DATE SUBMITTED: March 24, 2010 COMMITTEE CHAIR: Thomas Trice, Professor of History COMMITTEE MEMBER: Robert Detweiler, Professor of History COMMITTEE MEMBER: John Snetsinger, Professor of History - 3 - ABSTRACT Clash of Titans: William Randolph Hearst and his impact on American Foreign Policy in the Interwar Period The purpose of this thesis is to analyze a prominent figure of the 20 th century, William Randolph Hearst and to analyze the influence he was able to exert over American foreign policy through his own personal connections and those of his periodicals. This also includes an analysis between Hearst and Roosevelt, and noting the varying levels of influence between the two. This thesis will demonstrate that William Randolph Hearst is a prominent figure of 20 th century history, but was overshadowed by Roosevelt. Hearst while powerful was always putting his power into ventures that would backfire politically. When his papers declined, his influence over politics plummeted instantly.
