Why was it deemed original and contentious and what can it tell us about creativity? Taking us through cliche?, metaphor, analogy, neologism and surrealism, amongst other creative tropes, Tony Veale offers a comprehensive guide to the actual processes behind linguistic creativity. By grounding his approachable examples in easy to replicate methods, the book is perfect as a resource for individual creative exploration. Anyone with an open mind and a computer and a desire to learn about how we creatively say things with words will love this book.Written by an expert in natural language generation, this deceptively simple book offers powerful tools for reconceptualising creativity. 606 $aCreativity (Linguistics) 606 $2Creative writing & creative writing guides 606 $aGenerative grammar 606 $aGrammar, Comparative and general$xCoordinate constructions 615 0$aCreativity (Linguistics) 615 0$aGenerative grammar. 615 0$aGrammar, Comparative and general$xCoordinate constructions. 676 $a401/.9 700 $aVeale$b Tony$f1967-$01465621 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 801 2$bUkLoBP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910785947903321 996 $aExploding the creativity myth$93675725 997 $aUNINA
