Extraordinary creativity has been characterized as revolutionary, flying in the face of what is established and producing not what is acceptable but what will become accepted. According to this formulation highly creative activity transcends the limits of an existing form and establishes a new principle. However, the idea that extraordinary creativity transcends established limits is misleading when it is applied to the arts, even though it maybe valid for the sciences. For the sciences, a new theory is the goal and the end result of the creative act. Innovative science produces new propositions in terms of which diverse phenomena can be related to one another in more coherent ways. The goat of highly creative art is very different; the phenomenon itself becomes the direct product of the creative act. Shakespeare’s Hamlet is not a piece of writing about the indecisive princes or the uses of political power; not is Picasso’s painting Guernica primarily a prepositional statement about the Spanish Civil War or the evils of fascism. What highly creative artistic activity produces is not a new generalization that transcends established limits, but rather an aesthetic particular. Aesthetic particulars produced by the highly creative artist extend or exploit, in an innovative way, the limits of an existing form, rather than transcend that form.
This is not to deny that a highly creative artist sometimes establishes a new principle in the history of an artistic field. But whether or not a work of art establishes a new principle in the history of art has little bearing on its aesthetic worth. Because they embody a new principle of organization, some musical works, such as the operas of the Florentine Camerata, are of signal historical importance, but few listeners or musicologists would include these among the great works of music. On the other hand, although it has been said of Beethoven that he toppled the rules and freed music from the stifling confines of convention, a close study of his compositions reveals that he overturned no fundamental rules. Rather, he was an incomparable strategist who exploited limits--the rules, forms and conventions that he inherited from Hayden and Mozart Handel and Bach -- in strikingly original ways.
The author mentions the operas of the Florentine Camerata because______
选项
A、they reflect the birth of a new musical form
B、they can be considered as peers of Beethoven’ works
C、they tell of a period of human history
D、they are of great aesthetic value
答案
A
解析
根据文章第二段第三句“Because they embody a new principle oforganization.some musical works,such as the operas of the Florentine Camerata,are of signal historical importance.but few listeners or musicologists would include these among the great works of music.”可知,一些音 乐作品,比如,佛罗伦萨卡梅拉塔的歌剧,由于体现了新的创作原则而具有标志性的历史意义, 但很少有听众或音乐家将其视为音乐杰作。据此判断,答案是A。
