Abstract

Creativity is an increasing skill for the improvement of the personal, social and economic well-being of individuals of a society marked by the complex challenges of a modern world in continuous change. Analyzed profusely from the field of health sciences and human sciences, a philosophical analysis is urgently needed. This article presents a philosophical review of creativity from the contributions made by leading figures in the history of philosophy to the current debates on the issue. In this way, a greater clarification of the concept of "creativity" is sought, improving the understanding of said concept, and as a consequence, facilitating its application in our daily context.
