Aanbieding 2 met studiegidsnummer 4023651FNW voor werkstudenten in het 1e en 2e semester met een gespecialiseerd master niveau.
This course explores different themes, approaches and methods in the broad field of architectural history. The course is structured thematically rather than chronologically or geographically and is partly based on case studies. The selected topics can range from early modern architecture in a European context to more recent architecture in a global context. While the focus lies on architecture, the course also studies interactions between architecture and related fields, such as the visual arts, science and technology, urbanism, and music.
The course is largely organised in the form of a seminar. The students are expected to be knowledgeable and mature enough to independently search, process, present and discuss relevant information and scientific literature, according to their own interests. The students are expected to attend the lectures and to participate actively in the classes via group discussions, reading assignments, peer feedback and oral presentations. Each student prepares a paper presentation on a chosen topic.
The selected themes can vary from year to year. They address various aspects of architecture from a historical perspective, such as: connections between architecture and the visual arts; architectural representation and urban iconography; cross-cultural exchange and international circulation of architectural knowledge; architecture and music; women and gender in architectural history; the relationship between architectural history and current architectural practice; history of architectural theory; architectural historiography.
For more information about the specifics of this course, see Canvas.

The evaluation consists of three parts:
- process (20%)
- paper presentation (40%)
- oral exam (40%)
The process comprises the student’s active participation in the classes, intermediary assignments, group discussions, peer feedback and classical presentations (= permanent evaluation during semesters 1 and 2).
The evaluation of the paper presentation is based on the content of the paper and on its visually illustrated oral presentation.
The oral exam comprises questions on the course content and a discussion of the students’ paper presentations.
Students who do not pass in the first session may in the second session submit a new or revised paper and redo the oral exam; the process cannot be redone.
