Cíle předmětu
The main goal of this course is to develop, between the students, the capacity of a team research and important team writing skills. To do so, a concrete example – going from the medieval period to early modernity – will be analyzed. All relevant methodologies – architectural analysis, visual culture analysis, archival research, etc. – will be employed by the students to assess the case study. Will follow a process of collective writing finalized in the publication of an article or small booklet by all the participants. In this way, a real research group will be formed, giving to the students practical experience and skills of such an approach.
The case study under investigation will be the sacred spaces of the Martorana in Palermo. Differently to the existing literature, the goal of this project will be to present the different phases of its production in mutual interaction between them and their liturgical lives. The main output will be a small booklet devoted to the wider audience.
