A seminal work is a creative and original piece that, representing an idea, opinion or important issue, later will have the role of inspiring or contributing to the development of other works, serving as a source, as a base for new creations, a reference. We may use various seminal works to build a solid argument on a topic; For constructing fictional situations that represent the idea in them; For designing new thoughts about the same issue.
