Etymology
1. c.1386, from L.
creatus, pp. of
creare "to make, produce," related to
crescere "arise, grow" (see crescent).
Creator for "Supreme Being" (c.1300) drove out native
scieppend, from verb
scieppan (see shape).
Creative is from 1678, originally literal; of the arts, meaning "imaginative," from 1816, first attested in Wordsworth.
Creative writing is from 1907.
Creationism as a name for the religious reaction to Darwin is from 1880.
"James Ussher (1581-1656), Archbishop of Armagh, Primate of All Ireland, and Vice-Chancellor of Trinity College in Dublin was highly regarded in his day as a churchman and as a scholar. Of his many works, his treatise on chronology has proved the most durable. Based on an intricate correlation of Middle Eastern and Mediterranean histories and Holy writ, it was incorporated into an authorized version of the Bible printed in 1701, and thus came to be regarded with almost as much unquestioning reverence as the Bible itself. Having established the first day of creation as Sunday 23 October 4004 B.C. ... Ussher calculated the dates of other biblical events, concluding, for example, that Adam and Eve were driven from Paradise on Monday 10 November 4004 BC, and that the ark touched down on Mt Ararat on 5 May 1491 BC `on a Wednesday'." [Craig, G.Y., and E.J. Jones, "A Geological Miscellany," Princeton University Press, 1982.]
2. From Middle English createn, from Latin creātus, the perfect passive participle of creō, see -ate (verb-forming suffix). In this sense, mostly displaced Old English wyrċan (whence Modern English work) and ġesċieppan (whence Modern English shape). See: Middle English '
createn'.
