Consider that day or hour unfortunate in which you did not learn anything new and did not add anything to your education.

Jan Comenius


In one of his many interviews, Kurt Cobain once shared the following: “I have always been an outcast, and this bothered me a lot. But there was no desire to communicate with classmates or peers. And only many years later I realized why it happened - they were indifferent to creativity. And even today, most people perceive creativity as a kind of cultural element, and creators as superhuman or crazy. Using quotes about creativity, we will try to shed some light on this topic by talking about where creativity comes from, what it is and who they are.

What is creativity?

Beautiful quotes can sometimes tell a lot about what creativity really is. For some, this is a real act of love. Someone is sure that creativity is an innate character trait that cannot be learned. To understand the whole range of opinions, we will present them in the form of quotes about creativity:

  • "To create is to make thoughts light by inventing new life possibilities."
  • “The ability to be creative is a natural gift. It is akin to beauty or a strong voice. An innate ability can be developed, but no effort will help to acquire it.
  • “The ability to be creative is a divine gift. The act of creativity is a great mystery of the soul.”
  • "Creativity is a moment of the present, in which the future is created."
  • "Creativity is a feat that does not come without sacrifice."

It is not simple

Creativity can be created different ways, but it will certainly be based on something personal. Mysterious aspirations and desires, a protest against the ordinary, words that will never be spoken. And the one who says that it is easy to create is wrong. In fact, as Baurzhan Toyshibekov said: "Creativity is created from one portion of ink and three portions of sweat." To create something outstanding, you need to make maximum efforts every day. Constantly develop and work on yourself.

Best of all, the difficulties in creating works of art are described by quotes about the work of famous philosophers:

  • Socrates: "Every creator is obliged to express his state of mind."
  • Plato: "Anyone can be a creator if he has something that inspires him."
  • Aristotle: "Art never tells what is, it always shows what should be."
  • Voltaire: Creation speaks of its creator.
  • Diderot: "The highest task of any creativity is to find the unusual in the ordinary and the ordinary in the fantastic."

The life of the creator in exile

As Remarque said, creativity is always hidden under an unsightly shell. Not often found in the pages of history creative personality, which was always and in everything the first, lived a long and happy life loved and was loved. Often the creators were betrayed more than once, expelled from home country, not recognized during life, but praised after death. But they never abandoned the creation of their works.

Once he asked a rhetorical question: “Why are kind, decent, creative people always yield to the gray mass?” It has always been and always will be: creators are innovators. But everything new leads to changes that are uncomfortable and irritable, and therefore unacceptable in certain time. Aphorisms about creativity can say a lot about how different types of art are born in such harsh conditions: from music to folk art.

Music, literature, painting

You can often find quotes about creativity that focus on one of the art forms, and not on the whole process as a whole. But if you think about it, if you replace the word "sketch" with "creativity", the meaning of the phrase will not change. For example, here are some of the most common quotes:

  • “It's hard to part with someone you love. The longing of a simple breakup runs through several songs written, and from broken heart- through several written albums.
  • "Every sketch, still life or landscape, is essentially a self-portrait."
  • “If a person thinks clearly, he will write in the same way, and if his thought is valuable, then the essay will have value.”

What should be the creator?

You can talk for a long time about what is the meaning of creativity, where it comes from in this world and how it affects people. But it is important to know what real creators should be: interested, striving for perfection and not ready to recognize their masterpieces as ideal. This is what the quotes about creativity say:

  • "Creativity is a riddle that the creator asks himself."
  • "Any creativity begins as a desire for self-improvement and holiness."
  • "Creativity helps to preserve personality."
  • "Be the greatest master means not to recognize your perfection.

What do celebrities say about creativity?

Celebrities also often talk about creativity. Basically, their ideas are based on personal experience and observations. Most famous sayings belong to designers, models, actors. Their work is a little further from the stereotypical understanding, but nevertheless they know firsthand about it:

  • Igor Moiseev: “I am happy when luck comes in creativity, as I am glad to do what I am naturally destined to do.”
  • Giorgio Armani: “You have to be bold in your ideas. When I experimented with cuts, no one recognized me, but over time, my crazy ideas became fashion.”
  • Bruce Lee: "The creator creates himself, and this is much more important than an established system."
  • Tyra Banks: "It doesn't matter who you want to be, the main thing is to pursue passion, not money."
  • Barbara Palvin: "To achieve your dreams, you first need to be able to create."

Folk art

Russian creators also brought a lot into the world. Russian creativity is distinguished by its originality and dissimilarity to the creations of foreign geniuses. And for this, their works are respected, perceived as a unique heritage of the Russian people, which reflects the culture, mentality, basic life values ​​and priorities. As Fadeev said: "A person best of all manifests himself through work and creativity." And in a society where there are people with a desire to improve themselves, sooner or later such a simple phenomenon as folk art will appear. Quotes about folk art have never taken a leading position in their number, but nevertheless, a few well-aimed remarks can be found:

  • "Each kind of creativity has its joys, the main thing is to learn to take your own where it is."
  • "In creativity, it's much easier to stop a moment."
  • "The highest recognition of the creator is when his work becomes popular."
  • “Folk creativity is intended to ensure that the beauty of the world, the call to struggle, the breadth human soul and reason prevailed over darkness.
  • “There is room for creativity in every job.”
  • “Creativity is all the joy in life. To create is to overcome death.”
  • “If a rooster had creative freedom, it would still crow.”
  • "A person who does not create is worse than a plant that gives oxygen."

Outcome

Beautiful quotes about creativity can be summarized in one in simple words- Liberty. From all the examples presented, it can be seen that creativity does not imply obedience to norms. It is an act of free thought and action. The Creator notices a special charm in everyday life and tries to present it to people. And each of them always puts into his works the memory of what he loves.

They say that everyone can become a creator. Each person can bring something innovative, interesting, and complementary to the world. But if the person himself does not say: “Yes, I can do it. I will create, no matter what! ”, - nothing will come of it. Creativity is freedom, which begins with faith in yourself and an absolute readiness to go against the system, defending your position.

About the folklore of the Russian people

“The Russian people have created a huge oral literature: wise proverbs and tricky riddles, cheerful and sad ritual songs, solemn epics, - spoken in a singsong voice, to the sound of strings, - about the glorious deeds of heroes, defenders of the land of the people - heroic, magical, everyday and funny tales.

It is vain to think that this literature was only the fruit of public leisure. She was the dignity and mind of the people. She made and strengthened him moral character, was his historical memory, festive clothes of his soul and filled with deep content his whole measured life, flowing according to customs and rituals associated with his work, nature and veneration of fathers and grandfathers.

The words of A. N. Tolstoy very clearly and accurately reflect the essence of folklore. Folklore is folk art, very necessary and important for the study of folk psychology today. Folklore includes works that convey the main key ideas people about the main life values: work, family, love, public duty, homeland. We are brought up on these works even now. Knowledge of folklore can give a person knowledge about the Russian people, and ultimately about himself

The word folklore in literal translation from English means folk wisdom. Folklore is poetry created by the people and common among the masses, in which it reflects its labor activity, social and everyday life, knowledge of life, nature, cults and beliefs. Folklore embodies the views, ideals and aspirations of the people, their poetic fantasy, richest world thoughts, feelings, experiences, protest against exploitation and oppression, dreams of justice and happiness. It's oral, artistic verbal creativity, which arose in the process of the formation of human speech.

Russian heroic epic(epics) - a wonderful heritage of the past, evidence ancient culture and art of the people. It has been preserved in living oral existence, perhaps in its original form. plot content and the main principles of form. The epic got its name from the word “reality” that is close in meaning. This means that the epic tells about what once actually happened, although not everything in the epic is true. Epics were written down from storytellers (often illiterate), who adopted them according to tradition from previous generations.

Bylina - old song, and not everything in it is clear, it is told in a leisurely, solemn tone. Many Russian epics speak of heroic deeds folk heroes. For example, epics about Volga Buslaevich, the winner of Tsar Saltan Beketovich; about the hero Sukhman, who defeated the enemies - nomads; about Dobryn Nikitich. Russian heroes never lie. Ready to die but not get off native land, they honor the service of the fatherland as their first and holy duty, although they are often offended by princes who do not trust them. Epics told to children teach them to respect human labor and love their homeland. They united the genius of the people.

Throughout life, folklore helps a person to live, work, relax, help make decisions, and also fight enemies, as shown above in the examples.

In its specificity, folklore is the most democratic form of art, and under any circumstances - whether peace on earth or war, happiness or sorrow, folklore remains stable and active.

Folklore.

Verbal creativity has two forms: written and oral.

Written literature is called literature, oral literature is called folklore. They differ from each other not only in the ways of creation, distribution and perception of works. The main difference is that literature is an individual creation: each work has its own author, while in folklore works are perceived as a common property and authorship does not matter. Therefore, he speaks about folklore works, they were created by the people, this is folk art.

The word "folklore" came from the combination of two English words: folk- people, lore- wisdom.

This is an epic - works of a narrative kind: songs about memorable events, the history of heroes; various fairy tales, legends about the founding of cities, stories about the lives of prominent people.

All types and types of unprofessional epic, lyric poetry and drama that have ever existed, as well as still continuing to exist in the people's life, form what is called folklore.

Like literature, folklore works are divided into epic, lyrical and dramatic. TO epic genres include epics, legends, fairy tales, historical songs.

Lyrical genres include love, wedding, lullaby songs.

To the dramatic folk dramas. The original dramatic performances in Rus' were ritual games: seeing off Winter and welcoming Spring, elaborate wedding ceremonies, etc.

There are also small genres of folklore - ditties, sayings.

Over time, the content of the works underwent changes: the life of folklore, like any other art, is closely connected with history. The essential difference between folklore and literary works is that they do not have a permanent, once and for all established form.

Folklore is characterized by natural folk speech, striking with the richness of expressive means, melodiousness. A folklore work is characterized by well-developed laws of composition, with stable forms of the beginning, the development of the plot, and the ending. His style gravitates toward hyperbole, parallelism, constant epithets. Its internal organization has such a clear, stable character that even changing over the centuries, it retains its ancient roots.

Folklore is a performing art: facial expressions and gestures in a story, the musical side of folk songs, the expressiveness of dance in round dances - the techniques of many arts live in folklore.

History of collecting and studying children's folklore.

At the beginning of the XlX century, many researchers turned to the folklore heritage of the people. In 1837, I.P. Sakharov published a nursery rhyme in "Tales of the Russian people", lullaby, gives a description of several children's games, and two years later in "Songs of the Russian people" - four lullabies.

In 1844, a small collection of children's folk tales was published. Children's fairy tales were singled out in a special group for the first time.

In the 1930s, many writers already understood the pedagogical value of folklore. Works of children's folklore were published in the magazines Zvyozdochka, Mayak, etc., but there was no steady interest in children's poetry in academic circles. The fifties did not produce significant new publications.

A major step in the development of "folkloristics of childhood" was the collection of P.A. Bessonov "Children's Songs" (1868). This is the first collection of children's poetry.

It features almost all genres of children's folklore, from lullabies and pestles to big songs and games from the repertoire of teenagers. The material is arranged in such a way as to give the reader an idea of ​​the process of gradual accumulation of poetic wealth by the child.

Interest in children's folklore grew so much that many newspapers devoted entire pages to the publication of works of children's folk poetry. But most of the materials were used to characterize various aspects of rural life in ethnographic articles and essays, random works were published that somehow attracted the attention of collectors. According to them, it was impossible to form a correct idea even about the children's song repertoire.

After the Great October Revolution, in 1918, the People's Commissariat of Education launched the non-periodical publication "The Game", in which the primary place was given to children's folklore.

Unfortunately, the following decades added little to what was said in the 1920s. Works of children's folklore were sometimes published in folklore collections, more often of a regional nature, were mentioned in studies and programs.

At the end of the 50s, the work of V.P. Anikina "Russian folk proverbs, sayings, backs and children's folklore", was written at a high theoretical level, it not only gave Dahl a number of valuable scientific premises, but also predetermined three productive directions in the study of children's folklore: historical and genetic, philological and functional pedagogical .

Conclusion:

Thus, folklore has a daily impact on the aesthetic and ethical education of children. A significant role of folklore is to shape the worldview of children. Songs and poetry instill in children a high ideological conviction, love for the Motherland.

There is no doubt that interest in children's folklore will increase every year. A broad staging of the collection work, a deep study of the artistic features of individual genres are extremely necessary. Folklore should become a valuable means of educating a person who harmoniously combines spiritual wealth, moral purity and physical perfection.

Children's folklore.

Children's folklore includes not only those works created by children and living among children, but also those created by adults for children. The roots of children's folklore go back to antiquity. He absorbed such works that left the folklore of adults and took root in the new environment, adapting to children's perception.

The purpose of children's folklore is to educate the child, to help him socialize, he is included in the children's game, teaching and entertaining at the same time.

Children's folklore is not a reflection of an adult: it has its own world and its own genre system. For example: songs for the smallest - lullabies. Designed to soothe and lull the baby.

When a child grows up, to help parents - nursery rhymes and pestles. The names convey their functions well: the child both educates and amuses.

There are many children's games And almost all of them are accompanied by simple folklore texts.

Another genre of children's folklore associated with speech play is tongue twisters. On the one hand, tongue twisters are a means of developing speech in children, helping to master difficult-to-pronounce consonances, on the other hand, they are children's fun.

In counting rhymes, teasers, tongue twisters, sometimes such pictures are drawn that can be called fables. But there is also special genre with that name. Fables represent a world where the real appears in unity with the unreal, the ordinary with the extraordinary. Here animals, birds, insects become like people and behave quite unusually. Here a mosquito-mosquito fell from an oak tree, a raven plays a gilded pipe. Often, in fables, an “inverted world” appears.

This topsy-turvy world delights young children and convinces them of the correctness of the world around them.

Children's folklore gradually disappears along with childhood. But it is important to understand that children live not only by their own folklore: Russian folklore for all ages is constantly involved in their upbringing and education.

Sayings of great people about folklore.

“The beginning of the art of the word is in folklore. Collect your folklore, learn from it, process it. He gives a lot of material to you and to us, poets and prose writers of the Union. The better we know the past, the easier, the more deeply and joyfully we will understand the great significance of the present we are creating.

M. Gorky

“It is hardly possible to find material closer, affecting the interests and needs of childhood and therefore the most entertaining, than that which is connected with children's life, with everyday children's life, which arose, grew and developed from the search for the high joy of the children's masses. This is children's folklore.

G.S Vinogradov.

"Works of children's folklore for a child and a teenager are living organisms, wild flowers, growing before our eyes, apparently blooming, existing inseparably with their keepers."

G.S. Vinogradov.

A little about epics...

Epics in artistic form carry the concept of heroic ethics, give lessons in serving the motherland and people. Even in the pre-revolutionary years, pedagogical thought appreciated these qualities of the epic. K.D. Ushinsky, L.N. Tolstoy included excerpts and entire epics in children's books, and long before that, V.G. Belinsky advised:

“It is very useful and even necessary to acquaint children with Russian folk songs, to read to them, with a few omissions, epics.”

But the epic, in terms of its style and content, has never been specifically intended for children. Any experienced teacher understood that the epic was difficult for the child to understand and that its content needed to be explained in detail.

In 1945, the writer and folklorist I.V. Karnaukhova released the collection “Russian Bogatyrs. Epics”, which was retaken many times. Epics are retold in this book in rhythmic prose. The writer freed them from archaic properties and qualities, but retained the originality of the epic in epithets, comparisons, and methods of hyperbolization. Karnaukhova managed to convey to the reader the glorifying heroism of the epic, to give a sense of its historical nature, without mixing the epic with a fairy tale.

Among the successful attempts to make the epic accessible to the child, the creative experience of N.P. Kolpakova. Her collection "Epics" is made up of retellings of 11 epics. The arrangement is carried out in free prose, and such a manner does not remove the retelling from the original, but brings it closer to it: the naturalness of that narrative beginning, which is so attractive in the epic, is retained. The writer follows closely the plot of the epics. The poetic meaning and historical and everyday features of the epic receive brief explanations without violating the visual integrity of the retelling.
