Hiii:
this is my essay on this topic: would you mind to rate?
Originality is not such a concept that can be categorized in the first group or the other. Arguing about the fact that, whether an idea is original If and Just If that was not thought before, Or how significant the new combination of the old ideas should be, to be named Original is not simple and that much clear to discuss and I believe it is also not that much black and white.
The word Original itself, refers to s.th new, something comes from a pure creativity and novelty. The output of that novel creativity can be varied in both of those extremes, no matter it is old or new, adding an inspiration will cause originality. The argument will be on how much inspiration should be added to create something Original?
In fact, it doesn't seems possible that an idea arises, without any background or previous attempts. And Of course everything in this world is a chain of progresses and it is developed in a consecutive order. So if Originality interpreted as something never thought before, nothing in this world can be labeled Original. On the other hand, all the amalgamations of previous thoughts in a new way, cannot be considered as original. It seems that a considerable Jump or progress needed, to create s.th new. We can assume that the minimum amount of the novelty is depended on the public ability of creativity. The original idea is the one that is much further from the public wisdom accessibility. So when it is presented to the public it is going to seems novel to the others. No matter if it is a new way of looking to the previous matters or something that no one thought before.
In sum, I believe that evaluating the level of originality is so depended on how far the new idea is from the borders of the community imagination and it is not that much related to how much old that.

and this is my second essay for for another topic : I would really be glad if receives any comment:

TOPIC : "It is always an individual who is the impetus for innovation; the details may be worked out by a team, but true innovation results from the enterprise and unique perception of an individual."



An innovation is not the result of a clear predefined path , so that we cannot divide the path to one specific individual or assign each inspiration to one. The innovation is a combination of thoughts and ideas, no matter these thoughts developed by one or in a group, in both cases the first perception should be developed and expand. In the case that a team is responsible for coming up with an innovation, the role of the members is related to how creative they are and of course not related to the question of who is in charge to PUMP the energy and ideas to the group and who is the processor and further developer. The sequential nature of development gives the chance to the others to act impressively to have a significant role. It is obvious that the official task assignments in a teamwork is necessary but it is not the excuse for not being innovative in each level, one is assigned to. It is about how much the team members want to get involved in the matter and how much inspiration they are bringing to the project. The team members are not like those machines in a factory production chain, putting one part on top of the other to produce a product. They are recreational Intelligent human beings that can manipulate and bring new ideas in each phase of the innovation process. So the innovation is necessarily indebted not to one central point of enterprise and unique perception But to the all members as much as they are getting involved.

Whoa! That's one sentence. It starts to go astray after the first comma and completely stops making sense at "If and Just If."

Why are you writing this essay? For English practice? Start over. Say what you have to say as simply as you possibly can. Once we can understand what you are trying to say, we can help you say it correctly.

Originality is not a concept that can be categorized in one group or another. Arguing whether an idea is original if and only if that was not thought about before, or how significantly different the new combination of ideas should be to be called original, is not simple to discuss. Neither is this distinction black and white. The word 'original' itself refers to something new, something purely creative and novel. Creativity can be varied; adding something inspired will add originality. The argument could be how much inspiration will create something original?

In fact, it doesn't seems possible that an idea arises without any background or previous attempts. And ofcourse everything in this world is a chain of progress, and develops in consecutive order. So if originality is interpreted as something never thought before, nothing in this world can be labeled 'original'. On the other hand, neither can amalgamations of previous thoughts in a new ways, be considered original. It seems a considerable jump or progress is needed to create something new. We can assume that even the minimum amount of novelty depends on some ability to be creative. An original idea is far from being accessible to the general public. So when presented to the public it is certainly going to seem novel. No matter if it is a new way of looking at some previous matter or something that no one thought about before.

I believe the level of originality depends on how far the new idea is from the community's imagination, not how old that is.
