ART 229 - Medieval Art & Architecture
Medieval Art & Architecture
Prerequisite: None

How did people in medieval Europe see the world? In this course, we will study the art and architecture of Europe from the end of the Roman Empire through the vibrant Gothic era, illuminating the so-called "Dark Ages." Through close study of objects and texts from the Middle Ages, we will engage with critical issues and themes, such as the role of different religions, art and political power, the body and sexuality, global trade and cultural interaction, and art and science. Since the study of the past can cast the present in a new light, you will also explore medieval resonances in the images of today's world. How does the way we see medieval Europe reflect our view of the world today?
