Art History

Description:

Prerequisite: ARH 2850 , ARH 3150, ENGL 1101, ENGL 1102. This course consists of a study of the Romantic phenomenon that developed in Europe and the United States, particularly at the end of the 18th and throughout much of the 19th century. We will not only discuss the philosophical ideas, read primary source literature, essays, poetry and prose, including some excerpts from works of fiction, and of course look at the art work in Europe and the United States, but we will create a Romantic painting over the course of the term. We will also listen to some Romantic music and even write about it in class. Romanticism in England, France, Italy, Spain, Germany and the United States will be explored, and students will produce a painting, either a figurative work or a landscape, of the professor's choosing, and based on a Romantic masterpiece.
