The term has its origin in the [[Ancient Greek]] word διδακτικός (''didaktikos''), "pertaining to instruction",<ref>{{Cite web|title=OPTED v0.03 Letter D|url=https://courses.cs.vt.edu/cs2606/Fall08/Projects/Major/2/Data/wb1913_d.htm|access-date=2021-05-18|website=courses.cs.vt.edu|archive-date=2021-05-18|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210518063123/https://courses.cs.vt.edu/cs2606/Fall08/Projects/Major/2/Data/wb1913_d.htm|url-status=dead}}</ref> and signified learning in a fascinating and intriguing manner.<ref>{{Cite web|title=didactic {{!}} Origin and meaning of didactic by Online Etymology Dictionary|url=https://www.etymonline.com/word/didactic|access-date=2021-05-18|website=www.etymonline.com|language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|date=2013-09-15|title=Didacticism
Didactic art was meant both to entertain and to instruct. Didactic plays, for instance, were intended to convey a moral theme or other rich truth to the audience.<ref>[http://literarydevices.net/didacticism/ Didacticism in Morality Plays], Retrieved 30 Oct 2013</ref><ref>[http://www.uncp.edu/home/canada/work/allam/general/glossary.htm#d Glossary of Literary Terms] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131103044158/http://www.uncp.edu/home/canada/work/allam/general/glossary.htm |date=2013-11-03 }}, The University of North Carolina at Pembroke, Retrieved 30 Oct 2013</ref> During the Middle Age, the Roman Catholic chants like the ''[[Veni Creator Spiritus]]'', as well as the Eucharistic hymns like the ''[[Adoro te devote]]'' and ''[[Pange lingua]]'' are used for fixing within prayers the truths of the Roman Catholic faith to preserve them and pass down from a generation to another. In the [[Renaissance]], the church began a [[syncretism]] between pagan and the Christian didactic art, a syncretism that reflected its dominating temporal power and recalled the controversy among the pagan and Christian aristocracy in the fourth century.<ref>{{cite book|author=[[Cynthia White]]|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=PWdzlUBhFLwC&pg=PA176|title=The Emergence of Christianity: Classical Traditions in Contemporary Perspective|page=176|publisher=Fortress Press|date=October 1, 2010|isbn=9780800697471|access-date=July 1, 2021|location=Minneapolis, MN|series=G - Reference, Information and Interdisciplinary Subjects Series|oclc=1056616571}}</ref> An example of didactic writing is [[Alexander Pope]]'s ''[[An Essay on Criticism]]'' (1711), which offers a range of advice about critics and criticism. An example of didactism in music is the chant ''[[Ut queant laxis]]'', which was used by [[Guido of Arezzo]] to teach [[Solfège|solfege]] syllables.
