UN2219: Medieval Architecture in Europe | S. Van Liefferinge

Art History
Undergraduate Lecture
Tu Th 4:10-5:15PM

The monuments selected belong to a period that starts when architecture moved away from Roman antique models and ends just before the re-adoption of Classical standards and forms in the Renaissance. In this course, the originality of medieval architecture, its relationship with earlier and later monuments, and the dramatic effort involved in building before the introduction of power tools will be discussed. This introductory class will offer the foundations needed to understand artistic and architectural developments in the Middle Ages. During the course of the semester, the latest methods of research will be introduced, including new digital technologies. These technologies have created new approaches and are steadily transforming the field.
