Urban, Landscape, and Cultural Histories,

Rome - Paris, 1500-1750:

Spring Semester 2012

* Course Description

As capital cities in the services of papacy and monarchy, respectively, Rome and Paris each experienced triumphant developments in urbanism, landscape architecture, architecture, and art during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. By a comparative study, this seminar investigates these developments in two Renaissance and Baroque capitals with differing court societies, and examines key points of exchange between the two at the time of France's emergence as the leading political power in Europe.

From Julius II to Sixtus V and to Alexander VII, the Rome of Bramante, Michelangelo, Raphael, Caravaggio, Bernini, and Borromini saw the laying out of new straight streets and villa gardens, the building of huge palaces and churches, the completion of St. Peter's and its piazza. From Henry IV to Louis XIV, Paris witnessed the laying out of new and regular royal squares, the completion of the Louvre and Versailles palaces, and the development of a French classical culture with new forms of garden design, architecture, and painting.

The tales of the two cities were not separate: Rome was also the city of the painters Claude Lorrain and Nicolas Poussin and of a major French Academy, and Bernini came to Paris in 1665 to design the East facade of the Louvre palace; diplomatic exchanges carried with them scientific and antiquarian studies. From 1550 to about 1650, Rome was the cultural model for the new Paris. However, around 1650, the tide began to turn, and Rome had to compete with the cultural preminence forged by Paris and based on an expropriation of Rome's own classical and imperial past. The seminar will study this complex dialogue through several comparative topics and through key periods.

The focus for this semester is on what I will call hybridic, multivalent urban situations, such as the Capitoline palaces and their piazza, St. Peter's Square, and the Spanish Steps in Rome, and the Place Dauphine-Pont Neuf, Tuileries gardens, and Place de la Concorde in Paris.

Readings will be assigned for each session: each of the readings will be presented by one of the students, and then discussed by the class. In addition, each student will research a topic of her/his choice, typically the analysis of one or two urban situations: the research will be presented verbally as a 30-45 minute presentation to the class during one of the last five seminar meetings, and then will be written out as a formal paper of 10 pages, plus Bibliography and images, due in the last seminar meeting. The specifics may vary, depending on the class size.

Lectures & Seminar Discussions:

Lectures and seminar discussions take place in the classroom, but there are several trips to study original, rare materials in the nearby Harry Ransom Center. Some versions of this seminar also include a trip to see prints and drawings in the Blanton Museum of Art. Maps, bird's eye views, and printed plans and views are essential tools in the study of cities, their culture, and their urban, architectural and landscape forms.

Students:

The course is intended for and open to graduate students, including MLA, M. Arch., M.U.D., M.A. and Ph.D. students, and upper-level undergraduate students. Unique course numbers are created for each category of student. Enrollment in this seminar is limited to 15 students.

Class attendance is mandatory, and forms part of your grade for this course.

It is mandatory, unless exemption has been given in advance by the instructor for excusable absences. Students with three (3) or more unexcused absences are subject to lowering of the final grade for the course. Please contact the instructor by email in advance, if you expect to be absent.

Time Commitment of Students:

Includes class time (seminar), plus about four-five (4-5) hours (varies) of weekly reading. Additional time for study, reading and preparation for projects. The course assignments are spaced across the semester, and the instructor attempts to accomodate deadlines for the class in view of specific studio deadlines that students may have.

Basis of Final Grade and Assignments:

Class Participation: Class discussions and questions...... 25 %

Presentation of Reading(s)...... 25 %

Oral Report on research topic...... 25 %

Final written paper on research topic (10 pages, plus Bibliography, images, notes) 25 %

Time Table for the Research Report:

In Seminar 4 (2/09/12), students will sign up for a conversation with the instructor about their choice of topic. They should bring to the meeting at least two choices, first and second choice.

In Seminar 5 (2/16/12), a tentative schedule of Report Dates will be distributed in class. Adjustments will be made to accommodate possible conflicts of dates and topics.

Each student should arrange to see the instructor four weeks before the date of their Report. By this time, it is assumed that the student has command of the topic.

Prof. Mirka Beneš LAR 388-ARC 388R-368R Rome-Paris Spring 2012 page 3

Each student should arrange to see the instructor one week before the date of their Report, and should bring to the meeting a coherent outline of the Report, including a sense of how to make it fit in the time allotted.

The Final written paper is due on May 3, 2012, in the last seminar meeting of the semester.
