Art-Arch 336: Ancient Sanctuaries: The Archaeology of Sacred Space in the Ancient Mediterranean
3.00 Credits
Washington University in St Louis
Like the Vatican today, ancient sanctuaries were both the focus of religious activities and repositories for artistic treasures. Marked off from the secular world by physical boundaries, the sanctuary provided a common ground where gods and humans came together through sacrifice, shared meals, and other rituals. Shrines were often spectacularly sited and adorned with splendid architecture with both temples for the divinities and treasuries for the gifts they received. The course focuses on the great shrines of ancient Greece: Eleusis, the setting of the mysteries of Demeter; Olympia, home of the Olympic games.

Art-Arch 3419: Dragons, Buddhas, and Scholars: East Asian Painting Traditions
3.00 Credits
Washington University in St Louis
This lecture course provides an introduction to the history of Chinese, Korean, and Japanese painting. We begin by examining China's oldest extant paintings, which were unearthed from the medieval tombs of the Han dynasty (220 bc-206 bc), and then investigate paintings of each imperial period through the modern era (1912-1979). We then explore the prehistoric and Three Kingdoms period (57 bc-668 ad) tomb paintings of Korea, as well as Buddhist paintings of the Unified Silla (668-935) and later imperial dynasties. Japanese paintings include Buddhist, courtly, and secular works from the Asuka period (552-645) to the contemporary era. Overarching issues throughout the course include: the role of Buddhism and how the faith and its artistic styles changed throughout these three cultures; the impacts of international cultural, courtly, and religious contacts; and considerations of why specific works are considered "masterpieces." Prerequisite: Art-Arch 111 (Introduction to Asian Art) or permission of instructor.

Art-Arch 3512: Introduction to Medieval Islamic Art: The Fatimids
3.00 Credits
Washington University in St Louis
The first section of this course introduces medieval Islamic art and architecture from the emergence of Muhhamad and the rise of Islam in the early 7th century, through the caliphate of the Syrian Umayyads, to the dissolution of the Abbasid Empire in the tenth century. Special attention is paid to issues of particular importance to Islamic art, including aniconism, the role of calligraphy as an expressive art form, and the relation of early Islamic art to the traditions of other late antique cultures, especially Byzantium and the Sasanian Empire. The remainder of the semester focuses on the art and architecture of the Fatimid dynasty, which ruled an extensive empire across North Africa and the Near East from the 10th to the 12th centuries. The course pays particular attention to the social and historical contexts in which objects and monuments were created and used.

Art-Arch 3525: Introduction to Medieval Art and Architecture of Europe and the Mediterranean: 300- 1500
3.00 Credits
Washington University in St Louis

A broad geographic and chronological span-from England to the Near East; from the establishment of Constantinople in the 330s to the late 15th-century paintings of Western Europe-allows for full exposure to the rich variety of objects and monuments that fall under the rubric of "medieval" art. The course provides a solid foundation from which to pursue advanced study of art from specific medieval cultures and serves as a valuable complement to medieval courses in other disciplines.

Art-Arch 3527: Art, Architecture, and Ideology in Medieval France: The Reign of Louis IX
3.00 Credits
Washington University in St Louis
Louis IX (r. 1226-1270) was not only one of the most famous medieval European rulers but also a renowned patron of the arts. During his rule, France-and especially its capital, Paris-claimed status as one of the great artistic centers of the world. Extant buildings and objects allow us to trace these achievements, while ample textual documentation from the era helps illuminate the contexts in which these works of art and architecture were used and through which they conveyed meaning.
