ARTS 344 - From Emperor to Pope: Art, Architecture, and Urbanism in Ancient and Medieval Rome


Semester Offered: First Semester
Full Course
Credits: 4 credits

This course studies Roman art and architecture from 31 BCE, when Augustus assumed power, through its Christianization and the rise of the papacy, to 1309 and the papacy’s move to Avignon. We will address ancient monuments such as the Forum and the Pantheon, early Christian monuments such as St. Peters at the Vatican, and the art and architecture of medieval Rome. A particular focus will be the reuse of buildings and spaces over the millennium.
