WESTERN ART I: THE ANCIENT & MEDIEVAL WORLDS
This course examines the history of Western Art (architecture, painting and sculpture) from the Ancient and Medieval eras. We will examine not only the monuments themselves, but also the historical context in which they were produced. There will be a strong emphasis, too, on questions of analysis and interpretation. Our goal is to impart not only a body of knowledge but also a set of critical tools, which you should be able to apply also to material not specifically covered in this course.
Since most instructional delivery is online and asynchronous, this course will meet, via Zoom, only on Wednesdays for class discussions and/or student reports. A complete schedule of Zoom meetings will be posted to Canvas before the semester begins. **GE VPA and diversity global studies course**
