Om emnet
OCCAS Moving Monuments: Rome offers a study of historical monuments. The course teaches you about buildings but also about the techniques and approaches that you need to know to become a scholar.
The students work on one monument throughout the semester. To aid that investigation, the OCCAS team presents a spectrum of approaches to architectural research, intended to guide both you and the monument through history – and history through its many mediations.
“Moving” may refer to the transportation of architecture, but also to the recreation and circulation of monuments in various media and materials, museums and models, print- and preservation strategies. Experts in respective fields join forces to teach you not only about past monuments but also about the methods that enable us to think, talk, and write about them.
