1 DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY OF ART

SECOND YEAR 2005-06

PERIOD OUTLINE: FIFTEENTH CENTURY (ARTH 10 19568 and 18581)

COURSE INFORMATION

AIMS AND OBJECTIVES:

This particular course will cover Renaissance art in Northern Europe and Italy during the period c.1420-1500. It will look at developments in Italy, especially those in Florence and Venice, but it will focus in some detail on the art of the Netherlands, considering the innovations that occurred in art there and comparing them with those occurring at around the same time in Italian art. It will thus examine works in detail by the Italian ‘founders’ of the Renaissance, Donatello, Ghiberti and Masaccio, and compare their achievements with those of their Northern contemporaries Van Eyck and Rogier van der Weyden. It will also investigate specific connections between Northern and Italian art, as well as the varying conceptions of nature and realism, and of renaissance and revival; and it will consider too the ranges of styles on offer and the most characteristic forms of art works, such as altarpieces and portraits, as well as their differing religious and secular functions and the differing systems of patronage which led to their creation. It will then look at works by later artists, such as by Bellini, Botticelli and Leonardo da Vinci in Italy and by Bouts, Memling and Bosch in the North, exploring the new visions brought to art in the late fifteenth century and the changes in society that contributed to this artistic change.

LEARNING OUTCOMES: On successful completion of this module, participants should be able to: 1. Apply skills and knowledge gained in previous years to the art of the fifteenth century 2. Explain and critically evaluate the concepts studied and critical issues regarding them 3. See the history of art in a wider cultural context 4. Use appropriate IT resources for research

DELIVERY: One one-hour lecture per week, held at 9-10 am on Tuesdays in the Barber Institute Lecture Theatre. Attendance is compulsory.

ASSESSMENT: Level 2: Two assessed essays of 3,000 words each, subjects to be distributed in due course. Essay 1 (two copies) to be handed in to the Essay Box outside the Departmental Office by 5 pm on Friday 13 January 2006, complete with a declaration of authorship form. Essay 2 (two copies) to be handed in to the Essay Box outside the Departmental Office by 5 pm on Friday 28 April 2006, complete with a declaration of authorship form. Assessed essays are marked anonymously. To facilitate this, please do not write your name on the essay, but instead put your student registration number on the front page. They will be returned to you promptly to give you the opportunity to learn from comments and feedback. The marks at this stage are provisional only and should be regarded as indicators rather than binding. The final mark is confirmed at the 2 examiners’ meeting in June. Level 3: One three-hour exam in the Summer Term

STAFF: The course tutor is David Hemsoll ([email protected])

READING: See course outline below. There, I have included some standard books and articles and also some more recent relevant literature. These lists are intended as suggestions for initial research rather than exhaustive bibliographies of specific topics. You will often benefit, particularly for your essays, from consulting works not included in the reading list, and from using search engines such as the Bibliography of the History of Art available on the internet.

Remember that the University’s on-line catalogue does not include many works in the Barber collection acquired before 1990. These are listed instead on the card catalogue.

Note: The Library is under a statutory duty to observe copyright conventions. Which are summarised as follows. All copying, including photocopying and scanning, should be carried out within the terms and conditions set out in the Copyright, Designs and Patent Act 1988 (and related legislation) or in licences held by the University.
