Message from Francine Smolucha: Greetings to all! The first XMCA e-mail I sent out to you in June was never posted on XMCA. So, I will make one more outreach before my new publication deadline. My husband Larry and I introduced "Vygotsky's Theory of Creativity" in the 1980's with my original translations of Vygotsky's works from Russian. We have been asked to write a chapter reviewing the research literature for a book to be published in 2011. We will also be previewing new work in press and in progress. The chapter is nearly done; we discuss the Vygotsky and Creativity book, Marilyn Fleer's new book, Egan Kiernan's new book, Elena Kravtsova's research (citing Russian texts), Gunilla Lindqvist's work, and much more. [I will also be reviewing the Vygotsky and Creativity book for a journal.] We also set forth a research agenda based on our own thorough exegesis of Vygotsky's texts and our own research. Recently, I spoke with Robert Lake and I will be citing his up-coming book that discusses Vygotsky, creativity, and metaphor. If you have a publication scheduled for a 2011 release, and want it to be mentioned send me some e-mail information and a bibliographic entry. You do not need to send the actual text in progress. _______________________________________________ xmca mailing list xmca@weber.ucsd.edu http://dss.ucsd.edu/mailman/listinfo/xmca
