About the Book The term “Art” refers to a wide range of human activities in creating visual, auditory or performing works that express the author's imaginative, conceptual idea, or technical skill, and are intended to be appreciated for their beauty or emotional power. These activities include works of art, criticism of art, study of the history of art, and the dissemination of art. Music, theater, film, dance, and other performing arts are included in some broader definitions of art or the arts. Up to the 17th century, art referred to a skill or mastery that wasn’t differentiated from crafts or sciences. In modern usage aesthetic considerations are fundamental, and fine arts are separated and distinguished from skills acquired in decorative or applied arts. The definition of what may be considered art is often disputed and has changed over time. General descriptions of art mention imaginative or technical skill that are sourced from human activity and creation that are explored in a philosophical branch known as aesthetics.About us Leopold Classic Library has the goal of making available to readers the classic books that have been out of print for decades.
