Course Description:
This course will explore the complex relationships between art, architecture, politics, and theater in seventeenth-century Europe. During this period, Europe's civil, religious, and economic upheavals provoked increasingly elaborate and inflexible ideologies among its secular and religious rulers, yet the art and architecture of this period is among the most innovative and varied in Western culture. By combining politics and art, baroque festivals explored--and frequently altered--the seemingly opposed conventions of each. Students are encouraged to pursue class presentations and final projects that address a similarly broad range of related themes. |
