Neuware - Once a work is completed, when and how do writers and other artists embrace their next creative work In this fascinating book, Monique LaRue gives a tantalizing glimpse of the contour of time shaped by inspiration rather than the movement of the clock. Moving from the philosophical to the personal, she provides a view of how each of her novels has come into existence -- the personal context in which each came to be and the social context in which each was received.LaRue uses two important words in her approach to this 'between-time' of creative possibility. The first, 'meander,' from the Greek name for Maiandros, has come to signify 'wandering at random.' Like Northrop Frye, she distinguishes between 'Kairos,' the mysterious, unpredictable moment when the creative impulse is released, and 'chronos,' or passing time. This ephemeral moment, as explained by LaRue, is of time but not in it. Given this paradox, it should come as no surprise that LaRue's between-time of writing creatively has no name. Mortality brings time and its passage unceasingly to mind. Yet, the mental action of moving freely through meandering associations during the time between works becomes the criterion for thinking creatively.Une fois une oe uvre achevé e, quand et comment é crivains et artistes abordent-ils leur prochaine cré ation Dans cet ouvrage passionnant, Monique LaRue nous donne un avant-goû t allé chant des contours du temps tracé s, dans ce cas, par notre imaginaire et non par les aiguilles de l' horloge. Naviguant entre la philosophie et l' expé rience personnelle, elle nous livre un aperç u de la genè se de chacun de ses livres -- tant les circonstances personnelles dans lesquelles chacun a vu le jour que le contexte social qui les a accueillis.Deux mots clé s é mergent de la dé marche de LaRue dans son exploration de cet ' entre deux temps ' du potentiel cré atif. Le premier, ' mé andre ', provenant du terme grec ' Maiandros ' qui veut dire ' errer au hasard ' . À l' instar de Northrop Frye, elle distingue entre ' Kairos ', le moment mysté rieux et impré visible où l' é lan cré ateur est libé ré, et ' Chronos ', le temps qui passe. Pour Larue, ce moment é phé mè re, surgit du temps sans toutefois en faire partie. De par ce paradoxe, il n' est guè re surprenant de constater que l' ' entre-temps ' de l' é criture cré ative dont traite LaRue est innommé, Notre mortalité nous renvoie inlassablement au temps. Pourtant, la pensé e cré ative exige une activité mentale qui é volue librement, serpentant, au cours de ce temps entre deux oe uvres, au gré des alé as des associations mé andres.…
