It is, perhaps, no accident that many of the outstanding figures of the past were amazingly versatile men. Right up until very recent times, it was possible for an intelligent person to be familiar with almost every branch of knowledge. Thus, men of genius like Leonardo da Cinci or Sir Philip Sidney, engaged in many careers at once as a matter of course. Da Vinci was so busy with his numerous inventions, that he hardly found the time to complete his paintings; Sidney, who died in battle when he was only thirty – two years old, was not only a great soldier, but a brilliant scholar and poet as well. Both these men came very near to fulfilling the Renaissance (文艺复兴) ideal of the ‘universal man’, the man who was expert at everything.
Today, we rarely, if ever, hear that a musician has just invented a new type of space rocket. Knowledge has become divided and subdivided into countless, narrowly – defined fields. The specialist is respected; the versatile person, far from being admired, is more often regarded with distrust. The modern world is a world of highly – skilled ‘experts’ who have had to devote the greater part of their lives to a very limited field of study in order to compete with their fellows.
