Contemporary theories of art often exhibit inconsistency, blending modern interpretations with inherited views from ancient Greece. Greek theory posits that art is a practice tied to subjective experience, which is seen as inferior to science, considered the sole true revelation of reality. Science offers an untainted view of the world, while art is linked to production, deemed a lesser activity associated with mechanics and slaves. This perspective has shaped the understanding of both fine arts and useful crafts, positioning art as a reflection of human wants and preferences rather than an objective truth. The contrast between art and science highlights a longstanding debate about the nature of reality and the value of artistic expression. This work serves as a significant historical reference, utilizing advanced technology to preserve the original format while addressing imperfections in the text. It aims to maintain the integrity of the work while providing insights into the evolving relationship between art and education.
