The GAM/DP Theory V
|
A New Theory of Personality and Creativity
William A. Therivel
|
The Author writes, "I see myself as a scientist who has discovered some very important factors in the development of individuals and civilizations; and my theory is an explanation of both what makes people highly creative and what makes societies grow, prosper, and decline."
Volume V:The GAM part of the theory is applied to interpret a wide range of masterworks and their creators. Illustrations play a major role in chapter eight where sixteen incongruous horses are discovered in Leonardo Dinvinci’s Adoration of the Magi. The GAM part also studies Keynes, Pasteur, Max Planck, Gadamer, F.D. Roosevelt, Mozart and Bonhoeffer
The DP part of the theory is used to interpret a wide range of creative worlds. Chapter 32, “In Whose Company is God? On Michelangelo’s High DP Creativity in the Creation of Adam” is a DP chapter. The DP part tackles courageously such controversial subjects as Luther’s Counter-Canossa (1520 and 1525), Why the Famous German Kultur Failed, In Praise of Rabbi Elyse Goldstein’s ReVisionism and of Mondino de’ Luzzi’s Dissections, How Did Eighteenth-Century America Produce so many Great Men? and How Did Nineteenth-Century Russia Produce So Many Great Men?
