ADAH 360 - Art and Archaeology of Greece
Credits: Three (3)
This course will explore the material culture of the Greek world
from the Neolithic (6000 BC) to the Roman period. The material
introduced covers a broad chronological span. Students will explore
the archaeological remains of the Aegean Bronze Age, the beginnings
of Greek cult and architecture in the Dark Age period (8th c. BC)
and the development of art and architecture in the Archaic,
Classical and Hellenistic periods. The monuments and objects
examined in this class form the foundation for later artistic
developments. Readings and museum visits will supplement slide
lectures and provide a point of departure for in-class discussion.
This course will provide a thorough introduction to the art and
architecture of ancient Greece and will examine recent discoveries
uncovered through archaeological investigations.
