MEDVL 6300

Course information provided by the Courses of Study 2023-2024.

This course will address both "Romanesque" and the earliest manifestations of "Gothic" art and architecture as Western Mediterranean phenomena, rather than northern European ones. We will adopt a comparative approach which includes Islamic and, to a lesser extent, Byzantine cultures and material. In addition to the more usual art historical skills, such as visual and stylistic analysis and "compare-and-contrast," we will use selected primary sources and historical analysis to attempt to understand the objects and monuments we address.

When Offered Spring.
