Description: This course tracks Rome’s rise from a small village to a massive empire, through the lens of the art and architecture that the ancient Romans left behind. We’ll examine the physical remains of this remarkable civilization, looking at famous monuments like the Colosseum and the Pantheon as well as lesser-known temples, houses, mosaics, wall-paintings, and sculptures that revolutionized the ancient world and helped to shape our own. Some course meetings will be held at area museums.
