The history of Western art and crafts from the prehistoric era through the Middle Ages and introduces Art History itself as a field of activity and investigation.  Using works of art as primary sources for lectures and discussions, the course covers the arts of prehistoric Europe, the ancient Near East, Egypt, Greece, and Rome, and medieval Europe.  Through additional readings and discussions this Honors version of the course also introduces differing models of art historical practice, including iconography, artist’s biography, social history, feminism, and museology, as well as contemporary issues and debates in the discipline.
