A Trail of Crumbs to Creative Freedom by L. E. Henderson Pdf

Writing is hard. Some writers believe they need a magical mindset. Others believe you must force yourself to write. Such pressures cause pointless suffering. A Trail of Crumbs to Creative Freedom proposes a more playful and forgiving approach. “Trail” tracks the creative recovery of the author, who—right after a manic episode—becomes creatively numb and plunges into a depression. Desperately blocked, she longs to re-experience the creative rush of writing her first novel and imagines a trail leading back to it. "More than anything,” she writes, “I wanted to go back. Back to the time before my episode when the ideas had flowed freely. I needed a road, a path, a map. Anything would have been welcome." To go back to the state of inspiration she remembers, the author probes the nature and source of creativity. Slowly and painfully, the author rediscovers her love for writing and the fun of creative exploration. A Trail of Crumbs to Creative Freedom is part autobiography, part inspiration, and part how-to. If you struggle with block, follow this trail of crumbs through the forest to reach the light of creative freedom. Pick up this book today and get started.

The Time of Popular Sovereignty by Paulina Ochoa Espejo Pdf

Democracy is usually conceived as based on self-rule or rule by the people, and it is this which is taken to ground the legitimacy of the democratic form of government. But who constitutes the people? Democratic political theory has a potentially fatal weakness at its core unless it can answer this question satisfactorily. In The Time of Popular Sovereignty, Paulina Ochoa Espejo examines the problems the concept of the people raises for liberal democratic theory, constitutional theory, and critical theory. She argues that to solve these problems, the people cannot be conceived as simply a collection of individuals. Rather, the people should be seen as a series of events, an ongoing process unfolding in time. She then offers a new theory of democratic peoplehood, laying the foundations for a new theory of democratic legitimacy.

The Neuroscience of Freedom and Creativity by Joaquín M. Fuster Pdf

Joaquín M. Fuster is an eminent cognitive neuroscientist whose research over the last five decades has made fundamental contributions to our understanding of the neural structures underlying cognition and behaviour. This book provides his view on the eternal question of whether we have free will. Based on his seminal work on the functions of the prefrontal cortex in decision-making, planning, creativity, working memory, and language, Professor Fuster argues that the liberty or freedom to choose between alternatives is a function of the cerebral cortex, under prefrontal control, in its reciprocal interaction with the environment. Freedom is therefore inseparable from that circular relationship. The Neuroscience of Freedom and Creativity is a fascinating inquiry into the cerebral foundation of our ability to choose between alternative actions and to freely lead creative plans to their goal.

The Legends of the Modern by Didier Maleuvre Pdf

What made art modern? What is modern art? The Legends of the Modern demystifies the ideas and "legends" that have shaped our appreciation of modern art and literature. Beginning with an examination of the early modern artists Shakespeare, Michelangelo, and Cervantes, Didier Maleuvre demonstrates how many of the foundational works of modern culture were born not from the legendry of expressive freedom, originality, creativity, subversion, or spiritual profundity but out of unease with these ideas. This ambivalence toward the modern has lain at the heart of artistic modernity from the late Renaissance onward, and the arts have since then shown both exhilaration and disappointment with their own creative power. The Legends of the Modern lays bare the many contradictions that pull at the fabric of modernity and demonstrates that modern art's dissatisfaction with modernity is in fact a vital facet of this cultural period.
