The Art of Creation: Essays on the Self and Its Powers

The Art Of Creation: Essays On The Self And Its Powers – is a book which was published in 1904 and written by Edward Carpenter, an English utopian socialist, philosopher, poet and anthologist. In this book, the author examines creationism in the context of contemporary scientific and philosophical thought. The purpose of this book is to show something from both sides, both speculative and practical. Carpenter believes that it is not enough to study and investigate the art of Creation as an external problem; people should learn this art and practice it in themselves. Only in this way will it become vitally important and truly understandable for people. In the Appendix, Carpenter has included three articles from a significantly earlier date, which may shed light on the main issues of the book in their own way.
