The Dichotomous Man: The Message of Phaedrus.
Youngblood, Michael S.
Studies in Art Education, v25 n1 p6-13 1983
Popular beliefs and research on modes of thinking among artists and scientists promote the idea that artists are motivated primarily by emotion and intuition, while scientists are stimulated primarily by logic and reason. This dichotomy and its implications for art education are discussed and criticized. (Author/IS)
