Psychological Basis of Creative Speech Abilities Formation of Growing Personality

Abstract

A complex psychological sphere concerning the verbal creativity of the individual is revealed. For the first time, speech ability is presented in a holistic architecture. Three necessary and sufficient artistic representations of reality are singled out – realistic artistic image, symbol, metaphor. For each of them there are unique mechanisms – subject-object transfer, conditional mediation, object similarity.  

The development of the process of these mechanisms is revealed on specifc examples. 

Creativity is the most secretive sphere of a person's mental life, in which the subconscious and conscious, thinking, imagination and emotions and feelings, internal and external, are combined in a whimsical way. Usually, creative activity is associated with the creation of a new product, and this is precisely what distinguishes such activity from reproductive one, when its result is not new. Historically, it happened that humanity was more concerned with the external side of creative activity, on which its material well-being directly depended. The subject of our consideration will be creative speech activity, which is embodied in its result as a new speech act. The formation of literary and verbal creativity in a growing personality should begin with written speech. 

The theoretical construct of the component-wise formation of creative speaking abilities presented in the article is an effective basis for methodical improvement of the teacher in this feld. It is not for every growing personality to be a poet or a writer in the future, but to master the language of one's people perfectly is a great duty that arises before our modern education.
