definition of

  • eclectic 1.Unrelated and unspecialized. 2.Crossing a range or mixture of specialties. Selecting a mixture of what appear to be best of various doctrines, methods, or styles. Eclecticism is a kind of mixed style in the fine arts: "the borrowing of a variety of styles from different sources and combining them" (Hume 2003, p.5). Significantly, Eclecticism hardly ever constituted a specific style in art: it is characterized by the fact that it was not a particular style. In general, the term describes the combination in a single work of a variety of influences — mainly of elements from different historical styles in architecture, painting, and the graphic and decorative arts. wikipedia
