This project is a series of papers on different aspects of what it means to create through a Christian lens. The first is a paper on St. Basil and his definition of what it means to be in the Image of God, in short, to participate in our own creation by becoming more like God. The second is a paper that explores J.R.R. Tolkien and his idea of sub-creation, that humans are called to create in a manner like God and that their creating can have an effect on the world around them. The third is an analysis of the short story “Tlon, Uqbar, Orbis Tertius” by Jorge Luis Borges, in this story the power of humans to create is used in both negative and positive ways. These papers, together with further research, will culminate into a larger project, perhaps a book, on a theology of creativity.
