874 Text | must begin by dividing the art of creation; for imitation
875 Text | nature are the work of divine art, and that things which are
876 Text | these are works of human art. And so there are two kinds
877 Text | likenesses; and so the productive art is again divided into two
878 Text | what shall we say of human art? Do we not make one house
879 Text | not make one house by the art of building, and another
880 Text | building, and another by the art of drawing, which is a sort
881 Text | the thing, with which the art of making the thing is concerned,
882 Text | again divide the phantastic art.~THEAETETUS: Where shall
883 Text | this part of the phantastic art.~THEAETETUS: Yes.~STRANGER:
884 Text | this, then, be named the art of mimicry, and this the
885 Text | traces the pedigree of his art as follows—who, belonging
886 Text | dissembling section of the art of causing self-contradiction,
The Statesman
Part
887 Intro| example we will select the art of weaving, which will have
888 Intro| and sciences, to which the art of discourse must conform?
889 Intro| householder, practise one art or many? As the adviser
890 Intro| but a herdsman, and his art may be called either the
891 Intro| may be called either the art of managing a herd, or the
892 Intro| managing a herd, or the art of collective management:—
893 Intro| subdivide the herdsman’s art? ‘I should say, that there
894 Intro| let us begin again at the art of managing herds. You have
895 Intro| narrow a designation to the art which was concerned with
896 Intro| may subdivide the human art of governing into the government
897 Intro| clothes, and are made by the art of clothing, from which
898 Intro| clothing, from which the art of weaving differs only
899 Intro| I mean carding. And the art of carding, and the whole
900 Intro| of carding, and the whole art of the fuller and the mender,
901 Intro| clothes, as well as the art of weaving. Again, there
902 Intro| we say that the weaver’s art is the greatest and noblest
903 Intro| chiefly with that part of the art of wool-working which composes,
904 Intro| woollen garment. And the art which presides over these
905 Intro| these operations is the art of weaving.~But why did
906 Intro| once that weaving is the art of entwining the warp and
907 Intro| would be no beauty and no art, whether the art of the
908 Intro| and no art, whether the art of the statesman or the
909 Intro| of the statesman or the art of weaving or any other;
910 Intro| We may now divide this art of measurement into two
911 Intro| accomplished men say that the art of measurement has to do
912 Intro| example of weaving. The royal art has been separated from
913 Intro| The royal or political art has nothing to do with either
914 Intro| or walls, or (5) with the art of making ornaments, whether
915 Intro| already included in the art of tending herds. There
916 Intro| according to the rules of his art, and with a view to the
917 Intro| rules, but by making his art a law, and, like him, the
918 Intro| governor has a strength of art which is superior to the
919 Intro| might be extended to any art or science. But what would
920 Intro| separated from the royal art; when the separation has
921 Intro| not, is higher than the art of persuasion; the science
922 Intro| war, is higher than the art of the general. The science
923 Intro| their enemies. But the true art of government, first preparing
924 Intro| further sketched out, and the art of rhetoric is based on
925 Intro| in wool, and compare the art of weaving with the royal
926 Intro| painting, medicine, the art of the pilot—all of which
927 Intro| doctrine that virtue and art are in a mean, which is
928 Intro| standard external to them. The art of measuring or finding
929 Intro| particular application to the art of discourse. The excessive
930 Intro| opposition pervading all art and nature. But he is satisfied
931 Intro| clothes itself in poetry and art, and appeals to reason more
932 Intro| obtained. For the dialectical art is no respecter of persons:
933 Intro| expression—‘There is no art of feeding mankind worthy
934 Text | True.~STRANGER: But in the art of carpentering and all
935 Text | or is there a science or art answering to each of these
936 Text | only in reference to his art, be truly called ‘royal’?~
937 Text | remember that we made an art of calculation?~YOUNG SOCRATES:
938 Text | Certainly.~STRANGER: And to this art of calculation which discerns
939 Text | shall we assign to him the art of command—for he is a ruler?~
940 Text | mark of division in the art of command too. I am inclined
941 Text | shall we mingle the kingly art in the same class with the
942 Text | the same class with the art of the herald, the interpreter,
943 Text | STRANGER: Shall we call this art of tending many animals
944 Text | many animals together, the art of managing a herd, or the
945 Text | managing a herd, or the art of collective management?~
946 Text | a person, by showing the art of herding to be of two
947 Text | remember how that part of the art of knowledge which was concerned
948 Text | these two contains the royal art, for it is evident to everybody.~
949 Text | Certainly.~STRANGER: The art of managing the walking
950 Text | have been divided, and the art of the management of mankind
951 Text | name of the Statesman’s art.~YOUNG SOCRATES: By all
952 Text | division of the latter was the art of managing pedestrian animals
953 Text | further subdivision is the art of man-herding,—this has
954 Text | argument defined to be the art of rearing, not horses or
955 Text | or other brutes, but the art of rearing man collectively?~
956 Text | collectively, which we called the art of rearing a herd?~YOUNG
957 Text | As before we divided the art of ‘rearing’ herds accordingly
958 Text | that there was no human art of feeding them which was
959 Text | right to share in such an art than any king.~YOUNG SOCRATES:
960 Text | STRANGER: But no other art or science will have a prior
961 Text | sure that there is such an art as the art of rearing or
962 Text | there is such an art as the art of rearing or feeding bipeds,
963 Text | this the royal or political art, as though there were no
964 Text | True.~STRANGER: And the art of management which is assigned
965 Text | that he who has this latter art of management is the true
966 Text | any painting or work of art: to the duller sort by works
967 Text | duller sort by works of art.~YOUNG SOCRATES: Very true;
968 Text | to discover by rules of art what the management of cities
969 Text | called clothes, and the art which superintends them
970 Text | nature of the operation, the art of clothing, just as before
971 Text | clothing, just as before the art of the Statesman was derived
972 Text | may we not say that the art of weaving, at least that
973 Text | differs only in name from this art of clothing, in the same
974 Text | the reflection, that the art of weaving clothes, which
975 Text | important part is the cobbler’s art.~YOUNG SOCRATES: Precisely.~
976 Text | separated off the currier’s art, which prepared coverings
977 Text | in entire pieces, and the art of sheltering, and subtracted
978 Text | being divisions of the art of joining; and we also
979 Text | of the great and manifold art of making defences; and
980 Text | off the whole of the magic art which is concerned with
981 Text | as would appear, the very art of which we were in search,
982 Text | which we were in search, the art of protection against winter
983 Text | the work of the carder’s art; for we cannot say that
984 Text | person were to say that the art of making the warp and the
985 Text | warp and the woof was the art of weaving, he would say
986 Text | Shall we say that the whole art of the fuller or of the
987 Text | a division of the great art of adornment, may be all
988 Text | what we call the fuller’s art.~YOUNG SOCRATES: Very good.~
989 Text | woollen garment form a single art, which is one of those universally
990 Text | universally acknowledged,—the art of working in wool.~YOUNG
991 Text | as belonging both to the art of wool-working, and also
992 Text | universal application—the art of composition and the art
993 Text | art of composition and the art of division.~YOUNG SOCRATES:
994 Text | was just now speaking; the art of discernment or division
995 Text | is also a portion of the art of composition, and, dismissing
996 Text | satisfactorily the aforesaid art of weaving.~YOUNG SOCRATES:
997 Text | us call one part of the art the art of twisting threads,
998 Text | one part of the art the art of twisting threads, the
999 Text | twisting threads, the other the art of combining them.~YOUNG
1000 Text | called the warp, and the art which regulates these operations
