You’ve had a problem, you’ve thought about it till you were tired, forgotten it and perhaps slept on it, and then flash! When you weren’t thinking about it suddenly the answer has come to you, as a gift from the gods.
Of course all ideas don’t come like that, but the interesting thing is that so many do, particularly the most important ones. They burst into the mind, glowing with the heat of creation. How they do is a mystery. (46)
Psychology does not yet understand even the ordinary process of conscious thought, but the emergence of new ideas by a "leap in thought" is particularly intriguing, because they must have come from the somewhere.
For the moment let us assume that they come from the "unconscious". (47)
This is reasonable, for the psychologists use this term to describe mental processes which are unknown to the subject, and creative thought consists precisely in what was unknown becoming known.
(48)
It seems that all truly creative activity depends in some degree on these signals from the unconscious, and the more highly intuitive the person, the sharper and more dramatic the signals become.
But growth requires a seed, and the heart of the creative process lies in the production of the original fertile nucleus from which growth can proceed. (49)
This initial step in all creation consists in the establishment of a new unity from disparate elements, of order out of disorder, of shape from what was formless.
The mind achieves this by the plastic reshaping, so derived from a new unit, of a selection of the separate elements derived from experience and stored in memory. Intuitions arise from richly unified experience.
(50)
This process of the establishment of new form must occur in pattern of nervous activity in the brain, lying below the threshold of consciousness, which interacts and combines to form more comprehensive patterns.
Experimental physiology has not yet identified this process, for its methods are as yet insufficiently refined, but it may be significant that a quarter of the total bodily consumption of energy during sleep goes to the brain, even when the sense organ are at rest, to maintain the activity of ten thousand million brain cells. These cells, acting together as a single organ, achieve the miracle of the production of new patterns of thought. No calculating machine can do that, for such machines can "only do what we know how to design them to do", and these formative brain processes obey laws which are still unknown.
Can any practical conclusions be drawn from the experience of genius? Is there an art of thought for the ordinary person? Certainly there is no single road to success; in the world of the imagination each has to find his own way to use his own gift.
选项
答案
所有创造的第一步,都在于把没有联系的因素重新结合;将无序变为有序;将无形变为有形。
解析
order out of disorder、shape from what was formless的意译;三个并列短语的翻译。修饰establishment的有三个短语;what was formless是what引导的定语从句修饰establishment;此句话的主干为This step consists in the establishment。翻译order out of disorder和shape from what was formless要突出变化的过程,此处译为"将无序变为有序"和"将无形变为有形";三个短语并列作定语,修饰establishment。
