Description
Phenomenon of creativity in aesthetics and society. This issue is dedicated to phenomenon of creativity which becomes particularly popular among the humanities and social sciences. Essays are divided into two problematic parts in the first part the topic of creativity is connected with theoretical-philosophical approach and the field of aesthetics, while in the second one it is connected precisely with the social and economic area. Creativity and self-creation in aesthetic and art fields. In this part spreading of conception of creativity in art and aesthetic fields is examined: into the dimension of aesthetic cosmic consciousness (A. Mickunas, A. Gajauskas), through interpretations of religious rituals into art (E. Sakalauskaite), Nietzsche's self-creation idea (A. Mickevicius) and spreading of autopoiesis (S. Kanisauskas). A. Mickunas in his essay "Creativity and Cosmic Fields of World Awareness" argues that all arts and aesthetic meanings unite in inherent truth, capability to depict reality, reveal or perform. While seeing persona of creator from cosmic dimension the author suggests that Western aesthetic tradition tends to overvalue him and argues that creativity is not merely an invention of new styles but rather a way to unclose deeper, more essential understanding of the world. In the essay of A. Gajauskas a famous Lithuanian philosopher--Algis Mickunas--becomes an object of the research--reflection of quantum aesthetic in his cosmic philosophy is presented. What are the principles of quantum aesthetic and the relationship between aesthetic theory and theories of quantum mechanics? How does A. Mickunas understand the phenomena of "eternal return", "cosmic dance" and dynamic field? The answers could be found in the essay of A. Gajauskas. In E. Sakalauskaite's essay entitled "Transformations of Rituals in Contemporary Lithuanian Art" connections between art creation and religious rituals are studied, the way how religious rituals were reborn in contemporary Lithuanian art--young artists tend to bravely and originally interpret various topics of religious rituals, and use them for mediation of their creative ideas. How could in Nietzsche's ontology "God's Death" conceptions of creativity and self-creation be understood? Answers to these questions are offered in A. Mickevicius's essay where self-creation is closely related to the theory of will to power. Various philosophic, scientific and pseudoscientific approaches are combined in S. Kanisauskas's paper devoted to the topic pretty unknown for Lithuanian reader: the roots of creativity and self-creation are quested in autopoiesis--such a process where poiesis (creation) is intertwined with praxis, and spontaneous appearance of newness is interrelated with objectifying practice.
