Course contents :
|
| « Gothic » or « Renaissance »? By studying certain architectures and sets of sculptures of the 14th and 15th centuries, the art historian realises that architecture and sculpture concepts that are reckoned typical of the Renaissance did not appear from one day to the other. Similarly, certain topics, acknowledged as Gothic, disappeared as late as the end of the 15th century. This will be understood through the study of the particularly rich architecture and sculpture heritage of the Southern Low Countries and of the Principality of Liege. |
|
Learning outcomes of the course :
|
| - Be able to objectify aesthetic categories ("Gothic" and "Renaissance" in particular), study them with full knowledge and use the knowledge in understanding architectures and art works in a differentiated approach.
