Essentials Of Byzantine Architecture

What you'll learn
Students will learn the key developments, vocabulary terms, and works of art which are associated with Byzantine architecture.
Requirements
Students who have completed the preceding courses "Essentials of Roman Architecture" and "Essentials of Early Christian Architecture" will be able to appreciate some elements' continuity, but this course also can stand alone and provide a solid grounding in the earliest architecture of Byzantium.
Description
This course takes a look at the distinct characteristics of Byzantine architecture and introduces the student to its primary examples. This lecture also branches out from most Byzantine architectural histories by its inclusion of domestic architecture, in the form of the Byzantine-era palaces of Venice, Italy. By the end of this course, the student will be able to confidently recognize Byzantine architectural forms in a variety of contexts.
