The course, "Genius. Giftedness. Mediocrity" has been translated into English: "Genius. Talent. Golden Mediokryty."
Course objective is a phenomenological description of genius, talent and golden mediocrity as specific dimensions of human life, correction of errors and misapprehensions of common sense. The main idea of the course: genius, talent and golden mediocrity are different (perpendicularly oriented) dimensions of human existence. They should be studied coherently with their manifestations. All together they construct a space for creative life, but each taken separately provokes traumatic, devastating and exhausting forms of anxieties.
It the course there are critically examined the manifestations of the studied "dimensions" (phenomena), in order that by putting off all "the supposed" we could find specific and inherent meaning. The phenomenological method is to understand and express in simple terms the fundamental structure of creative activity, to express everything that was, that is and that will be important in the psychology of creative life.
In the course there are used examples of coherent manifestations of genius, talent and golden mediocrity in works of art, biographies and creative practices: http://ido.tsu.ru/mooc/
