Prerequisite or corequisite units are presented within each program
Learning unit contents
"Basic concepts of mythology through the intermediary of Images and their Media" Whatever media is used, iconography is a particularly fertile area for study to understand Greek and Roman civilisations, as well as their mythologies. This third year course will be built around around ten myths in which iconographic antique traditions are systematically studied, including all media (sculpture, painting on vases or large-scale paintings, mosaics, coroplastics, glyptics, toreutics).
Learning outcomes of the learning unit
The two BLOC 3 courses (HAAR0072-2 and HAAR0073-2) are based on the knowledge acquired during the first two years of study - they respond to one another and are built around a shared model. This consists of testing fundamental knowledge relating to the study of Antiquity (historical references and geographical data, political institutions and religious behaviour) by studying Greek and Roman iconography through mythology. The aim of the course is limited to the definition and application of a research process.
Prerequisite knowledge and skills
None - bearing in mind that the History of Art and Archaeology of Greek-Roman Antiquity is only one element of the indissociable whole of the Sciences of Antiquity (history, philology, history of religion).
Planned learning activities and teaching methods
For BAC students, regular presence in class is required, as well as analytical and verification work in the library which is required to pull together all the material presented. These hours of personal study, which will be required throughout the year, should be equivalent (or greater than) the number of hours in class. It is also advised that the foundations are laid on the basis of bibliographical and iconographical information.
Mode of delivery (face to face, distance learning, hybrid learning)
