Course Description |
The course covers a survey of the Anatolian cultures starting from the prehistoric times to the end of the Byzantine Empire. It is
centered around the architectural styles, their relations, influences and continuity in the Hittite, Urartian, Ancient Greek, Roman and
Byzantine cultures. It also examines examples of religious, representative and public buildings within the context of their social and
cultural frame. Painting, sculpture and minor arts, their relations with architecture, construction techniques, plan types and
architectural theories, and buildings of special importance in the process of architectural development are discussed. |
