HIS 3. History - Art History: A Methodology Lab
Course
This course provides a showcase for how art historical and
historical methodologies are merging in current and ground-breaking
research of the pre-modern world. We will investigate historical
sources that document the ritual function of medieval holy sites
(f. ex. churches, synagogues, mosques) and their decoration, as
well as administrative documentation, and examine how they resonate
with the organization and decoration of inner spaces (walls, domes,
screens, curtains) ritual furnishings (altars, minbars, Torah Ark
doors, baptismal fonts) and vessels (f. ex. censers, candlesticks,
chalices). The course introduces students to new art
historical research that uses anthropological approaches to images
and embraces non-Christian religious cultures and focuses on the
sensorial experience of a holy site or object when activated in the
ritual. By focusing on phenomenological aspects of sacred
architecture and decoration, f. ex. natural and artificial light
(reflections on mosaics, stained glass, enamels, candles in front
of cult images), sound and music (arrangements for reading,
preaching, (antiphonal) singing, as well as scent (f. ex. diffusion
of incense), the goal is to provide students with tools to
reconstruct the strategies that architects, donors, and artists
used to create experience of a sacred space for an audience. The
geographical and temporal scope is set widely to address different
ritual specificities and artistic/architectural styles as well
changes in function and decoration across Europe including the
Mediterranean basin and from Late Antiquity to the early
Renaissance.
At the same time, students are familiarised once again with the
techniques of historical work and the preparation of historical
term papers.
