Topic for Spring 2016: The Art and Archaeology of Pompeii
This seminar will examine aspects of the art and archaeology of Pompeii and neighboring cities and towns on the Bay of Naples that were destroyed by the volcanic eruption of Mt. Vesuvius in AD 79. These sites offer not only a wealth of information about their art and architecture, but also about Roman urban life of the period, and as the world's oldest continuously excavated site, Pompeii in particular also allows us to study the history, techniques, and theory of archaeology.
