Course Description A lecture course on western European art and architecture from the fourth to the fourteenth centuries. Through visual analysis, vocabulary acquisition, discussion, exams and writing assignments, students will demonstrate knowledge of historical developments and an ability to analyze the art. Max hours: 3 Credits. Semester Hours: 3 to 3

This course is a study of Western Medieval art and culture from c. 400-1400, broadly conceived within a global framework. Central questions will include what is at stake in defining a Medieval Western artistic legacy and what are the merits and setbacks entailed in the scholarly pursuit of transcultural art historical methods. The art of the period will be considered in relation to political and religious histories of the Mediterranean, including Byzantium and Islam, as well as domestic conflicts and dialogues, such as Papal/Imperial conflicts and the presence of minority populations of Muslims and Jews. Stylistic developments, patronage, and iconography will all be explored in addition to considerations of techniques and aesthetic theories. The mobility of objects, styles, and artists will be examined in light of pilgrimage and crusader activity. Each unit is designed to introduce students to a key artistic developments and their historiographic reception by scholars. Topics are varied and touch upon key concepts of medieval visuality, visual narrative, popular spiritualism, political propaganda, stylistic influence and evolution, and twentieth-century Western Art scholarship. The lectures will treat the following subjects:

Latin-Christian Art and Thought Concepts of Syncretism and Hybridity

Byzantine Art The Crusades

Propaganda Varieties of Church Architecture

Multiculturalism Gothic Architecture

The Cult of Saints Monasticism Pilgrimage Iconoclasm and Aniconicism Mediterranean Networks Jewish Art Islamic Art Medieval Maps

Course Outcomes

Knowledge: Develop familiarity with key visual aspects of Latin American art of 1520-1820; learn the names of the principal artists, architects, and developments; develop a command of the chronology of art and architecture. Skills: Visually analyze key examples of art and architecture; verbally analyze the visual arts; develop strengths in expository writing; strengthen awareness of research strategies. Dispositions: Improve the ability to approach, discuss, and analyze unfamiliar art; become comfortable at speaking and writing about visual material; develop openness to Latin American art of 1520-1820 as a basis for art practice.

Course Format

The course will meet twice weekly, during which we will advance through the material principally by means of lectures with visual presentations. Although the lecture format dictates that the professor do most of the talking, the success of this class depends on your participation. Analytical discussion will therefore take place on a class-wide basis. These discussions provide important insights beyond what the textbook and professor say. In the event that we turn our attention to Latin American art in Denver, we may meet outside the classroom. There will be writing assignments, a midterm, and a final exam. Any work submitted late may take longer to return. If you wish, I will email you the score of the final exam. Please budget up to six hours weekly to work on this course outside the classroom. This time may be spent, for example, on the reading or writing assignments, or on preparation for the tests.

Course Policies If you need course adaptations or accommodations because of a documented disability, please contact the Office of Disability Resources and Services, at 303-556-3450 (or TDD 303-556-4766) in NC #2514. This step will ensure that you are properly registered for services. In addition, you may alert me via email or speak with me during office hours or an appointment.

Please finish your eating, drinking, and phone calls before coming to class. Headphones and earphones are to be taken off and put away, and cell phones, pagers, and other communication devices are to be turned off. Laptops may be used to take notes, but are not necessary. A class-wide no laptop policy will be implemented for the duration of the semester if students use laptops for anything other than note-taking. In the event of implementation, any exceptions to a no laptop policy would be based on a documented need established with university officials and me.

N.B.: Regular attendance is essential, in part because the images on the tests will derive almost entirely from those shown in class. You may take up to three absences from the lectures with no direct effect on your grade; each additional unexcused absence will result in your course grade falling ten points - or one full letter. Please be sure that you are present for attendance in each class meeting; one cannot retroactively register ones presence on the attendance sheet by saying I was late the other day and walked in after attendance. Sleeping, eating, text-messaging, using the phone, chatting or corresponding with a classmate, wearing headphones/earphones, doing homework for another course, and/or regularly leaving or arriving while class is in session does not satisfy the attendance requirement. If you are absent, you are responsible for contacting a classmate about whatever material you missed. Please keep track of your attendance record; I do not routinely dispatch email advising everyone of their count. In case of absence, please be sure that any excuse note bears a date and explains the circumstances in detail. A physicians note is necessary in the event of an illness. I may reject a note as unsatisfactory, and I reserve the right to determine the course of action after being presented with documentation concerning your absence. Elective or non-emergency matters, including but not limited to field trips, family reunions or events, dental work, many types of surgery, plane tickets, and an appointment with the optometrist, do not constitute grounds for an excuse from the course requirements or regularly scheduled exams. If you must make use of your permitted absences from the lectures, please do so judiciously.

To be considered for a make-up exam, you or your representative must take two steps. Before the regularly scheduled exam, alert me that you will be absent. By 5:00 PM on the first working day after the exam, provide me with the written explanation of the extraordinary circumstances for the absence. After these two conditions have been satisfied, I will determine how to proceed. Do not presume that you will be given a make-up test; if you do receive one, it will be a version different from the normally scheduled exam. Scheduling of make-ups will be based on classroom availability and my choosing. Cheating on the midterm or final exam will result in a failing grade for the respective test. If, during the test, I judge that you may be cheating, I will confiscate your exam and ask you to leave the room quietly so that other students may finish. Examples of cheating on the test include but are not limited to consulting notes or a classmate for information, or providing information to a classmate.

Visual Arts Department Content Notification: Art History scholarship and Art Studio practice, along with art teaching and learning, are complex endeavors. They involve the critical exploration of ideas, theories, art-making practices, and art movements, and encompass such things as the human body, sexuality, race, gender, ethnicity, politics, strong language, religions, and cultures. This course may cover one or more of the above categories and each student will be required to be an active participant in all course assignments, discussions, and tests. Given this information, it is the students obligation to determine whether the course content and requirements conflict with the students core beliefs. If a student determines that there is a conflict with his or her core beliefs, one of the following actions must be taken prior to the last day to drop a course without penalty: 1) drop the class; 2) meet with the instructor to determine if an accommodation can be made. Faculty will ascertain if an accommodation can be made; however, faculty are not required to grant content accommodations.

After course documents and assignments are distributed in class, you can often find them posted at the courses page at Blackboard. Additionally, some course announcements will likely be sent via the Blackboard system to your UC Denver email address.

Important Dates and Deadlines

FALL 2014 ACADEMIC CALENDAR Students are responsible for knowing all academic dates for each semester they are enrolled. Academic calendars can be accessed at the following link: www.ucdenver.edu/AcademicCalendar The calendar information below applies to College of Arts & Media (CAM) majors. Non-CAM majors should consult their advising offices. August 26 September 3 Steps for adding a course from August 26 through September 3 are as follows:

The student requests permission from the faculty member to add the course. Faculty member contacts the department Program Assistant to generate a

student permission number for the course. (The Program Assistant will need the students name, ID, email address, phone number, course title, course number, and section number to generate the permission.)

Once the permission is generated, the Program Assistant will inform the student via email that a permission has been granted and that the student can now register for the course via UCD Access up until 5 pm on Wednesday, September 3, 2014.

September 4 If the class does not appear on September 4 as enrolled on a students schedule, the student is not registered for the class.

Starting September 4 through the 12th week of classes, students wishing to drop a course must submit to the CAM Deans/Advising Office (ARTS 177) a Late Drop Petition. Petitioning does not guarantee that the late drop will be approved. If the petition is approved, the student will not receive a tuition reimbursement and the course will appear on the students transcript.

Early Alert The Early Alert program provides intervention assistance to students experiencing academic performance, participation, or classroom behavior issues. Faculty submit alerts which are then collected, collated, and forwarded to the designated academic advisor in the students home college. Academic advisors then send out an e-mail to each alerted student asking the student to contact the advisor. Based on information provided by the faculty and their own experience, the academic advisor provides guidance, referral to student support offices, etc.

Semester dates for Early Alert, and more information about the program, can be found at: www.ucdenver.edu/earlyalert

If the class does not appear as enrolled on your schedule, you are not registered for this course. It is your responsibility to verify that you are registered for the classes you are taking.

Degree Progress and Keeping on Track

Students should review the restrictions and prerequisite requirements of every CAM course to ensure that they meet the requirements to be in the course.

Restrictions and prerequisites can be found by performing a class search in UCD Access, clicking the section number of the course, and then checking for any Enrollment Requirements.

Courses in the major area require a minimum grade of C/2.0 (in most cases) in order to take the next course in the sequence; note that grades of C-/1.7 or lower will not fulfill the requirement for major-area courses. A student who does not earn a minimum C/2.0 grade in a CAM major course will be required to repeat that course with a C/2.0 or better grade before taking the next course in the sequence.

Students should review the grades they have earned in prerequisite courses to ensure that they are eligible to take the next course in the sequence. Students participating in courses for which they do not meet the requirements risk 1) being administratively dropped from the course, and/or 2) delaying progress to degree completion and/or graduation.

Please consult a CAM advisor (CAMadvising@ucdenver.edu) for further clarification.

Steps for Students Addressing Academic Concerns

When a student has questions or concerns regarding academic issues such as project grades, final grades, attendance policies, etc., the student is encouraged to speak directly with the faculty member teaching the course.

If resolution or clarity of understanding is not reached, the following procedure should be followed: o The student contacts the Department Chair to discuss the concerns and his/her point of view. o The Department Chair speaks with the faculty member to ascertain the faculty members point of

view. o The Department Chair facilitates a meeting between the student and faculty member to discuss

the issue. o If the student still has concerns after completion of these procedures, the student should contact

the CAM Associate Dean of Academic and Student Affairs.

Academic Honesty

o A faculty member, a student, or a representative of CAM may bring forward a concern regarding student academic dishonesty.

o A faculty member who has evidence that a student has violated academic honesty should take the following actions:

The faculty member contacts either the Department Chair or Associate Dean to discuss process and procedures.

The community member is asked to present the student with evidence and review the details of the situation in a meeting with the student, providing students with the opportunity to speak to the issue.

If the faculty member identifies that academic dishonesty has occurred, the faculty member determines the appropriate consequence(s). These may include a failing or zero grade on the assignment in question or a failing grade in the course. If the faculty member believes that issuance of a failing grade is an insufficient penalty, the faculty member may request additional consequences and submit the case for review to the Academic Policies, Procedures and Curriculum Committee of the College of Arts & Media.

Upon reaching a sanction, the faculty member must inform the student in writing of the decision and include the details of the academic dishonesty issue. A copy of the letter to the student must also be submitted to the Department Chair and to the CAM Associate Dean.

Upon receipt of the letter from the faculty, the Associate Dean and Department Chair will review the case to ensure that due processes have been followed. Students wishing to review, discuss, or dispute the consequence recommended by a faculty member should contact CAMs Associate Dean.
