Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

The course proposes a critical re-reading of Gombrich's book Art and Illusion.

Assessment and permitted materials

Participation in discussions, oral presentation and, most important of all, an art historical paper (of 25 pages meeting common art historical standards). All means of scholarly research are welcome, and there is, of course, a ban on plagiarism.

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

Term paper, oral presentation, active participation are required. The overall grade results primarily from the paper, but the oral presentation und particiaption in the course can be very important, especially if the the quality of the paper is ambigous ("between two grades").

Examination topics

This is a seminar, so there will be no exam.

Reading list
