Creative writing and the creation of the poet: A romantic perspective
Öz
The term creative is based on the inventive
powers the mind possesses. These powers are the source of imagination which is
a main feature required for poetry composition. One of the major literary
movements that placed an early emphasis on the powers of imagination is
Romanticism. William Wordsworth regards imagination as one of the essential
qualities the poet should have and employ in the process of creating poetry.
Versification is among the higher forms of creative writing as it requires
particular sense of rhyme and meter. However creative writing from a romantic
perspective is centered on the figure of the poet as a creator who owns
distinguished imaginative powers and techniques beside the skills of verse
composition. Nature in the romantic tradition is deemed a major source from
which the poet fills his reservoir of imagination needed to write poetry.
Against this background, the study of creative writing from a romantic
viewpoint should be based on the examination of the concept of the creation
of the poet. This paper therefore aims to investigate the romantic
conception of creative writing as an activity leading to an inventive
production owned by a creator who has already passed a process through which he
himself is created as a talented poet.
