概述:

在这件事中,我们看到意识一直注视着在潜意识中形成的新组合,而瓦格纳的例子则显示了一个新想法在意识中的突然迸发。。。

Hints:

Fuchsian

Wagner

Descartes

One night he drank some black coffee, contrary to his usual habit, and was unable to sleep. Many ideas kept surging in his head; he could almost feel them pushing against one another, until two of them combined to form a stable combination. When morning came, he had established the existence of one class of Fuchsian functions. He had only to prove the results, which took only a few hours. Here, we see the conscious mind observing the new combinations being formed in the unconscious, while the Wagner story shows the sudden explosion of a new concept into consciousness. A third type of creative experience is exemplified by the dreams which came to Descartes at the age of 23 and determined his life path. Descartes had unsuccessfully searched for certainty, first in the world of books, and then in the world of men.
一天夜里,他一反常规,喝了些清咖啡,无法入睡。许多想法在他脑子里不断涌现;他几乎能感觉到这些想法在相互碰撞,直到其中的两个结合在一起,形成了一个稳定的组合。到了早晨,他已经确证了一类富克斯函数的存在。他只需去证明其结果,而这只需要几个小时即可以解决。在这件事中,我们看到意识一直注视着在潜意识中形成的新组合,而瓦格纳的例子则显示了一个新想法在意识中的突然迸发。 笛卡尔23岁时所做过的、决定了他的人生道路的一些梦,可以作为第三种创造性经历的例证。在这之前,笛卡尔一直在寻找确定性,先是在书本里,然后是在人群中,但均未成功。
