Courses in Medieval and Renaissance Studies

A MRS 298 Topics in Medieval and Renaissance Studies (3)
This course will focus on a particular theme, issue, text, or historical moment of the medieval or early modern period in a way that crosses disciplinary boundaries. A course may consider, for example, the music, art, literature, and history of the late fourteenth century or the early twelfth, or it may survey drama and art of a particular region. This course is intended to be introductory. May be repeated for credit when content varies.

A MRS 398 Topics in Medieval and Renaissance Studies (3)
This course will focus on a particular theme, issue, text, or historical moment of the medieval or early modern period in a way that crosses disciplinary boundaries. Individual courses will vary significantly; one may examine the implications of a particular philosophical development and its cultural expressions in literature, art, and/or music, for example, while another may focus on the concept of “renaissance” in history and art to question the traditional divide between medieval and early modern. Some background in medieval or early modern studies is recommended. May be repeated for credit when content varies.

A MRS 497 Independent Study and Research in Medieval and Renaissance Studies (1-4)
Directed study and independent research in a selected area of medieval or early modern art, history, literature, or music. Interdisciplinary projects encouraged. Some background in medieval or early modern studies is preferable. May be repeated once for credit when content varies.
