ARTH 12.02 Roman Architecture

Architecture played a central role in ancient Rome’s ascent to imperial world power. Buildings like bathhouses, aqueducts and villas built around the Mediterranean basin helped spread Roman culture across both time and space; temples and shrines assured that Romans everywhere could pray to a common roster of gods; likewise, roads connected the cosmopolitan cities of the empire. In this class, we will look at the variety of built types, construction materials and building techniques that the Romans adopted from about 500 BC to 400 AD.

The Timetable of Class Meetings contains the most up-to-date information about a course. It includes not only the meeting time and instructor, but also its official distributive and/or world culture designation. This information supersedes any information you may see elsewhere, to include what may appear in this ORC/Catalog or on a department/program website. Note that course attributes may change term to term therefore those in effect are those (only) during the term in which you enroll in the course.
