Expanded knowledge and critical application of art-historical methods on examples referred to in the lecture.

The seminar will give an overview of the most important architectural creations (in theory and practice) of this complex century. We will especially focus on the incorporation of earlier architectural styles, be it Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance or Baroque. The reasons for the adoption of earlier architectural languages have to be discovered. The precursors before the 19^th century and their backgrounds must also be understood. Students will tackle their topic in presentations of 30 minutes and defend their approach in class discussion. Students are expected to conduct an extensive literature search in libraries and on the internet and to be capable of talking and writing about their topic without any form of plagiarism.
