ARCH 2111:Architecture Culture I: Early Civilizations & Medieval

3 Class Hours 0 Laboratory Hours 3 Credit Hours
The Architecture Culture sequence is designed as a historical survey of Architectural history and theory. Its aim is to develop an understanding of how architecture manifests the socio-cultural conditions of an era by examining the relationship between architecture and other cultural discourses such as philosophy, aesthetics, science, religion, politics and technology. It also examines how architecture, as a cultural artifact, transforms through time in response to alterations in its surrounding cultural context. This course introduces early architectural traditions and the formulation of European traditions through the Gothic.
