Section Info:
Topic: Reading Rocks: Contextuality and Romanesque Sculpture. In this seminar, we will explore sculpture of the Romanesque period within its architectural, political, literary, and cultural contexts. Concentrating mainly on monuments in France and Spain, we will delve into the stylistic antecedents of the Romanesque from the Late Antique, Islamic, and Mozarabic cultures, and from temples of India. The course is designed to focus on the ways in which different contexts affect our reading of Romanesque sculpture, but we will also consider other problems that affect sculptural interpretation.
