Stylistic Types in the History of Arts

There are classifications in the theory of styles which might help create a unitary vision upon styles by giving up the rigid nature of the notion of style and make its significance more fluid. This text is based on the idea that humans relate to the world in three ways: through senses, intellect and sensibility. The shape they give to their perception of the world depends on the mixture of these three. The will guides humans towards one of the three personal attitudes: the empirical, the rational or the empathic one, this phenomenon being reflected on art as well.
