A new renaissance art history course for 2007

AA315 Renaissance Art Reconsidered

For the first time from February 2007 the art history department will be offering a 60 point course at third level covering the early modern period to replace its two current 30 point courses, A354 Art, Society and Religion in Siena, Florence and Padua 1280-1400 and A424 Display and Devotion: Religious Painting in Italy, 1300-1500. The course will cover the period 1420-1520 and look beyond the traditional Italian boundaries of the renaissance to include Northern European and Byzantine art. The three books that make up the course consider the making, locating and viewing of the traditional arts of painting, sculpture and architecture, but will include chapers on other media including printmaking and tapestries.
