Creativity Phenomenon in the Context of Medieval Christian Philosophy Sholpanay URALBAEVA

Based on the analysis of fundamental worldview principles of the leading medieval philosophers – Aurelius Augustinus and Thomas Aquinas – the conceptual principles of the phenomenon of creativity in Medieval literature are established. It is concluded that human creativity in the medieval Christian paradigm is associated with the divine, manifesting as salvation through union with God. In medieval Christian philosophy, creativity is not just a person’s action but also the appearance of a chance for a particular person to accept the new ontological status due to gravitating towards God and the Absolute.
