Medieval Spain Portrayed Through Visual Arts

0.5 credits · Undergraduate

Through the lens of visual arts, this course will examine the evolution of complex medieval societies in the Middle Ages. We will analyse films, painting, drawing, sculpture, ceramic, images, literature, and architecture as a primary source to explain and study the past. This investigation of visual art allows us an in-depth look at medieval daily life, with a specific focus on family, violence, marriage, childhood, crimes, punishments, markets, towns, and village.
