What was Galois theory like before Emil Artin? edited May 31 '10

I read that the primitive element theorem for fields was fundamental in expositions of Galois theory before Emil Artin reformulated the subject.
What are the differences between pre and post-Artin Galois theory?

Actually, it wasn't all that different, except that you first proved the primitive element theorem, and then proved things by choosing a primitive element.
Artin disliked having to make a choice, and his main contribution was show that you can do Galois theory without choosing a primitive element.
It's not obvious to me that this makes things easier or better. You can find the old approach in A.A. Albert's book on algebra. ? JS Milne May 31 '10 at 11:57

Charles, the independence of multiplicative characters is usually credited to Dedekind. Galois theory is about separable extensions. ? JS Milne May 31 '10 at 13:11
