Arts and Majesty is an ancient work of Rosharan literature that has come to define the Vorin ideas of masculine and feminine arts.[1] It defines certain topics and practices as masculine or feminine; the feminine arts are generally those that can be practiced with a single hand, while the masculine arts involve both hands, associating delicacy with women and brute force with men.[2] The idea of the safehand comes from this distinction between one-handed and two-handed arts.[1] In modern Vorin culture, practices that are not explicitly mentioned in the book (and are not too similar to ones that are) may be properly performed by anybody.[3]

History

Arts and Majesty was written by a female artist[1][2] well before the Day of Recreance.[4] It may not have had much influence on culture before the Recreance; soon afterward, however, some men in power came across it and began emphasizing it to justify keeping Shardblades and Shardplate away from women.[5][6] As retaliation, a movement of women caused writing and literacy to move into the domain of women.[1]

The division between masculine and feminine arts became part of Vorin culture over the next few decades[4] and remained solidly in place even thousands of years later, with the safehand and the femininity of writing being especially prominent in day-to-day life. Arts and Majesty itself also stayed well-known despite its age, at least among upper-class lighteyes.[3] In some cases, the distinction between the arts moved beyond a mere cultural norm and gained religious overtones; men who could write, for example, could actually be seen as blasphemous and not just strange.[7]
