ARTH 17800: Leonardo and Michaelangelo:Their Art in Context
3.00 Credits
University of Chicago
This course examines the art and personality of the two artists who are often considered the culminating figures of the Italian Renaissance. We give some attention to understanding the Florentine artistic and social context out of which these two near-contemporary, but very different, individuals emerged. We then examine their careers in the context of the other major centers in which they worked, especially Rome and Milan. This course encompasses the whole artistic career of Leonardo (d. 1519), but it concentrates on the first half of Michelangelo's much longer career (e.g., juvenalia, Pieta, David, Sistine ceiling, Julius Tomb). C. Cohen. Winter.

ARTH 20605 /30605: Roman Art
2.00 - 3.00 Credits
University of Chicago
This course introduces Roman art: its place in the genesis of the general theoretical bibliography of art history, its particular and complex characteristics, and the range of its kinds of artifacts. We begin inductively, but then move to a history of the general theoretical overviews that have been offered for Roman art-overviews that have been influential in the broader historiography of art history as a discipline. Two- to three-hour class meetings are held the first five weeks of the quarter. Individual discussion sessions required. J. Elsner. Spring.
