| Course Overview |
This course consists of lectures related to specialized research on Western art prior to the modern period (up to around the nineteenth century). Western art of this era represents one of the most extensively researched fields within art history. Students are expected to gain an understanding of the kinds of scholarly research that have been conducted in this area. The A/B-designated quarter courses bearing the same title are offered as a single, continuous course. In principle, students should enroll for the full semester. If, due to special circumstances such as studying abroad, you wish to enroll for only one quarter, you must inform the instructor in advance. In the first half (corresponding to A), we will discuss fundamental topics in Western art history. These are matters that students in this program are expected to understand thoroughly. Please study them carefully. Even students who do not take this course are expected to acquire equivalent knowledge independently, regardless of their graduation thesis topic. Without a solid grasp of these fundamentals, it will not be possible to provide appropriate guidance in seminars or at the Friday colloquium. In B, we will address more advanced topics based on current scholarly interests at that time. |
