Techne (Technè) is ancient Greek for “technology,” “handicraft,” “art,” etc.
[Meaning]
The skill and art of craftspeople
A perfect fusion of intellect, technology and art
A desperate stratagem: a scheme to deceive an enemy even by causing suffering to oneself or one’s allies.
[Etymology and related words]
Techne is the origin of “technique” and “technology.”
Latin ars was ancient Romans' translation of Greek techne and is the origin of “art.”
Techne is applied to virtually all human-made products, from arts such as painting and sculpture to medicine, architecture, rhetoric, and cooking.
[History and culture]
Until the Renaissance, art and artisans' skills were deeply connected.
From the 18th-century Age of Enlightenment onward, art came to be regarded as distinct from artisans’ techniques and handiwork.
In ancient Greece, knowledge and abilities accompanying human making generally were respected and collectively called techne.
