An introduction to the main episodes of the history of architecture from antiquity to the Baroque period, with particular regard to urban spaces and construction techniques.
The course of History of Architecture II aims to illustrate a general survey of the main topics of the history of architecture in Europe from antiquity to the baroque period. The lessons will focus on specific case-studies, discussed as examples of more general issues. Special attention will be devoted to methodological questions, aiming to present architectural history as a specific field of research in the broader context of historical and art-historical disciplines.
At the end of the course the student will know the main episodes and monuments of the history of European architecture from antiquity to the baroque period. He will also be able to master the issues and concepts discussed in the lessons: the complex relationship between architects and patrons on the one hand, architects and workers on the other; the cultural meaning and the political, economic, social, role of architecture; the importance of specific contexts.
No prerequisites required.
