Learning outcomes

The goal of this course is to give students a basic outline of the development of European architecture from the Antiquity (antique Greece and Rome) to the top Renaissance. During the analysis of Czech architecture, the stress will be laid especially on Romanesque and Gothic architecture, on building in the reign of Charles IV and on the late Gothic. The lecture will concentrate on ideological, cultural and social context of emergence of individual styles, building types and particular works.
Students will start to understand the questions of European and Czech architecture development from the oldest times to the top Renaissance, they will master style and esthetic atributes of individual style periods and they will learn examples of their most characteristic works.
