Book Chapter
Creative Writing around the World
2013
Overview
This chapter assumes the concerns that matter most to the mind, goals that affect the entire human species, are presented in language that reflects the culture in which it originates. Not everyone on the planet has the same assumptions about the power of language, what it should be used for, how it is supposed to be applied in complex social situations, or what happens when you put it into print. The author tries to convince the reader of this argument. He then offers a few thoughts on predicting how language will come to be understood in terms of creative writing and world literature. The chapter also discusses how cultures use language to communicate, and to then transfer this knowledge to different writing strategies. The chapter makes connections between culture and creative writing through the product of two authors well‐known in world literature.
