model
Jiang interprets Dante's universe as a co-creation process in which God, human imagination, and poets all participate, with poets having unusual leverage because imagination can alter how hell is formed and perceived.
normative
Jiang calls contented slavery sinful because it shows a lack of faith and a failure to understand that human beings are here to live the best life possible, inspire others, and co-create the universe.
definition
Jiang names the relation between artist and viewer co-creation: the artwork provides a reality and the viewer's imagination makes that reality more vivid and dynamically alive.
model
The student example Jiang accepts makes the Mona Lisa a co-creative mirror: the changing meaning of her smile depends on the inner state the viewer brings to the encounter.
model
Students propose that the alternative to zero-sum life is co-creation or making the cake bigger, and Jiang accepts that as a useful first answer.
model
Jiang says faith, hope, and love make human beings co-creators with God, whereas moneylending exploits other people's capacity to co-create while the lender does nothing but charge interest.

definition
He defines hope as actively imagining and vowing oneself into a future that God then co-creates, rather than passively waiting for rescue.
model
