While primarily associated in popular imagination with its ancient, medieval, and Renaissance past, Rome is a vital, changing, and challenging contemporary city. Rome’s many layers show the intersection of multiple periods of architecture and the effects of politics, economics, religion, and culture on the urban context. This course considers the city of Rome from its foundation until today, using critical strategies for understanding urban environments as well as individual monuments. We will employ a variety of evidentiary materials: individual monuments, maps, photographs, prints, primary texts, and films.

3 undergraduate hours. 3 graduate hours. Prerequisite: Sophomore standing.
