Hardback --- SUMMARY What is technique in the arts? Now widely used to refer to the practical aspects of art making, technique was a neologism in the vernacular, and started to appear in treatises on arts and sciences from around 1750. Rooted in the Greek technè, which was translated routinely as art until the mid-eighteenth century, technique referred to processes of making or doing and their products. Described previously as art , methods , manners or mechanics , techniques were recorded in text with the intention of documenting or transmitting practical skills and knowledge. This book bridges the gap between the changing concept of technique and the practices currently described by it. It explores the linguistic, philosophical, and pedagogic history of technique in the arts, answering the question why the term technique first emerged around 1750, and exploring how its meaning to artists, art theorists, and natural philosophers changed until the twentieth century.
