This course is designed for (and limited to) declared art history majors with junior standing. The theme of the class this year is the copy, conceived as a theoretical lens through which we examine objects from diverse regions and time periods. A major task of this seminar is to prepare students to design and research a topic, compose and annotate a bibliography, and write and revise a 20-page research paper by the end of the semester. The experience of writing this paper, which will serve as the junior qualifying exam in art history, will prepare students to write their senior art history thesis. At the end of the semester, students are also expected to produce a draft of their thesis proposal.
