Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
The lectures intend to address the development of late Antique sculpture with attention to typology, Style and Chronology. The discussion will consider the political, idiological and social function of Late Antique statuaria and how statues were incorporated within the Urban landscape. Attention will be also devoted to the reception of pagan statues after the introduction of Christianity and how and to which extent the impact of classicism has conditioned the development of specific Christian imagery.
