Resumo

The thought of Charles S. Peirce can provide new keys for the study of creativity.
It is possible to argue, based on the pragmatism that Peirce defended, that there is a form
of reasoning that joins logical soundness and imagination. Peirce’s scientific method,
whose power lies in a logical operation called abduction, provides important clues to
better understand how we make new discoveries, how we embody new ideas in creations
and, ultimately, how we think more creatively and effectively.  Resumo
O pensamento de Charles S. Peirce pode fornecer novas chaves para o estudo
da criatividade. É possível argumentar, com base no pragmatismo defendido por
Peirce, que existe uma forma de raciocínio que une solidez lógica e imaginação.
O método científico de Peirce, cujo poder está em uma operação lógica chamada
abdução, fornece pistas importantes para entender melhor como fazemos
novas descobertas, como incorporamos novas ideias em criações e, em última
análise, como pensamos de forma mais criativa e eficaz.
