Intellectual Type of Creativity (Poetry)

On the example of poetry, this paper explores intellectual modus of creativity as expression of \ntendency of artistic thinking in the 20th century. Intellectualization is interpreted as “directed \nthinking” (C. G. Jung), i.e. rationality that dominates in creativity. The paper outlines defining \nmindsets of intellectual type of creativity: self-consciousness of art, reflection of gnosis, priority of \naesthetics over ethics, alienated lyricism. Diversity of forms is illustrated by poetic examples of older \nsymbolist V. Bryusov, futurist V. Khlebnikov, member of the absurdist group Oberi u N. Zabolotsky, \nneofuturist N. Glazkov, naturalistic philosopher A. Tarkovsky and minimalistic conceptualist \nV. Nekrasov. Intellectual type of creativity, along with visibly frozen spiritual processes, shows specific \npassion for possessing the absolute truth. This truth can be shown as universal idea (for instance, \ncommon unity, panlogism, hylozoism) or as a way of thinking (in examined cases – as aestheticism, \nGlazkov’s unprecedentism, conceptualism), which maximally approached the undogmatic, heuristic \nunderstanding of essence of nature of things and relations
