Abstract
The article examines several twentieth-century polemics between mechanist approaches to language and art and studies that emphasize creativity and historical developments. The 1944 exchange between Leonard Bloomfield and Leo Spitzer was an eloquent example of such polemics, as were the various points of view of Russian formalists as well as the French debates concerning historical determinism and creativity in literary studies.
