Abstract

<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title> <jats:p>Philosophy has long either dismissed or paid only minimal attention to creativity, and even with the rise of research on imagination, the creative imagination has largely been ignored as well. The aim of this volume is to correct this neglect. By bringing together existing research in various subdisciplines, we also aim to open new avenues of research. The chapters in Part I provide some framing and history on the philosophical study of imagination and creativity, along with an overview of the empirical literature. Part II explores imagination and creativity as they manifest in, and in turn shape, the individual. Part III surveys the role of imagination and creativity across a wide variety of artistic domains, and the chapters of Part IV turn to societal domains. Part V focuses on the interplay of imagination and creativity with regard to particular features of creative subjects and different kinds of creative subjects.</jats:p>
