imagination/inspiration

Karen's journey to South Africa was a source of fresh ideas and imagination for her latest novel.

Could I replace imagination with inpiration? Thanks.

I'd prefer "inspiration".

Imagination is a person's own capabiluty, though it can be stimulated from without.

P.S.: Do you mean Karen Blixen?

Thanks, Anonymous.

Do you mean imagination that imagination can do the trick a bit?

P.S. I have no idea who Karen Blixen is; the base sentence is a stand-alone sample.

Exactly, you get inspired from others. Imagination is restricted to the person alone.
