This seminar studies medieval Paris, the largest city in Europe, royal capital of France, and home to a renowned university. We meet the city through its surviving buildings, visual arts, and literature. Using digital tools we will reconstruct key lost buildings in a process that casts participants in the role of builder, demands careful evaluation of evidence and encourages creative imagination.
This course is open to Juniors and Seniors.; Prereq: 8 credits in Art History, Computer Science, or Medieval Studies.
