Cíle předmětu
At the end of the course students should have achieved the following goals: to understand and to be able to explain what is generally meant for 'Early Byzantine architecture' and the historiographical issues related; to talk about the process of transformation of the network of antique cities into the different kinds of early medieval settlements; to become aware of the technical and formal features of town-planning activity in the Southern Balkans throughout the period concerned (5th-8th centuries AD); to discuss about the patronage (bishops, laymen, imperial officers) involved in the maintenance of urban structures and the construction of new buildings;
Osnova
  • Preliminary information will be provided leading up students to get a fuller knowledge of the geo-politics in the area to the South of the river Danube from the Late Roman times up to the Early Byzantine period.
  • The analysis of either the archaeological sites or the still standing urban contexts will lead to a general overview about the town-planning in the area of the Southern Balkans and present-day Greece throughout the Early Byzantine period.
  • To assist students in understanding the transformation process of Late Antique urban settlements, some key-cases will be offered of cities and archaeological sites across the whole area of concern. Such key-cases will be chosen because of the their inherent interest or the circumstances surrounding them.
  • A further basic aim of the course will be to provide students with the knowledge required to become confident with the domain of Early Byzantine provincial architecture. Church and secular architecture, their typologies and features and their sculptural decoration will be discussed in detail.
