Like the prehistoric period, the arts of the ancient world were closely connected to each other, and usually produced or performed for a specific commission or event.[26] Artists or performers were usually of low status and considered craftsman, who often had no need to strive for particular originality.[26]

"Rather, the recorded history of the arts reveals that far from being divorced from political, religious, and economic concerns, they have long been intimately interconnected. Vested with the explicit responsibility in many countries for cultivating the arts, and educating young and old alike in the arts, arts educators" – https://www.jstor.org/stable/pdf/10.2979 (p. 16)

  1. ^ The arts scholar Ellen Dissanayake has specified these categorizes as: art as objects, art as a "quality of beauty", art as an "indicator of craftsmanship or creativity" and art as a "process of performance".[5] In a a longer list, the philosopher of art Denis Dutton variously classifies it as "direct pleasure", "skill and virtuosity", "style", "novelty and creativity", "criticism", "representation", "special focus", "expressive individuality", "emotional saturation", "intellectual challenge", "traditions and institutions", "imaginative experience".[6]
  2. OED Online explains that "The unmodified mass noun [art] is normally understood as referring to the visual arts; however, it may sometimes to extended to include music, literature, dance, drama, etc., though the plural form arts is frequently used to indicate a broader range of creative activities"[8]
