Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
This course will give students an opportunity to develop skills in visual analysis and contextual interpretation of a selected pictorial narrative from the mid-fourteenth-century illuminated manuscript from Český Krumlov, occasionally labeled as the Liber depictus (Österreichische Nationalbibliothek, Cod. 370). Each participant will be asked to study, describe, analyze, and interpret the narrative, its images, texts, and their multiple contexts in historical reality and theoretical reflection in light of the recent research literature, but from his or her own perspective. The discussions in class will be aimed at finding individual ways in making decisions that lead to a final essay. To achieve this goal, each participant will regularly make a short presentation of the most important preliminary results.
