Description: The history of Ancient Roman art spans a period of more than 1500 years that saw the birth of Christianity, Aristotelian philosophy, religious, republican popular government, military rule and myriad political, philosophical, religious, economic, anthropological and gender issues that have fundamentally shaped the subsequent history of the world. In short, a study of Roman art presents a study of humanistic and sociological change in microcosm. In the course you will gain a thorough overview of those issues through lecture and discussion on all manner of art and architecture from the Roman world.
