Section Information for Fall 2023
This class will explore theoretical approaches to understanding the representation of individuals in the ancient Mediterranean world, using specific case studies of portraiture. The modern construct of individuality, as conveyed through the representation of the human face, differs from past concepts. We will thus ask questions designed to alert us to our modern gaze and how that gaze differs from, and thus obstructs, the original meaning of a work of art.
