Course Outline
Course Details XE "Course Details" Bibliographies XE "Bibliographies" XE "Timetables" COURSE OUTLINE
The purpose of Part I in the History of Art is to introduce students to the fundamentals of the discipline and, in general, to the teaching and learning methods of the University. In this first year of study considerable emphasis is laid on direct contact with works of art and architecture in Cambridge, and on the understanding of certain traditions fundamental to the art and architecture of Western Europe. Part I therefore prepares students for advanced work in Part II in the History of Art; having completed it successfully, students may also transfer to another Part II with the agreement of their college, new department, Director of Studies and Tutor.
Part I has three components:
1. Paper 1 XE "Paper 1" . This year-long survey course focusing on works of art and architecture in Cambridge is arranged more or less in chronological order from the Middle Ages to the present day. It should enable students to grasp the broad history of Western (and some non-Western) art and architecture, its main styles, techniques and traditions, with direct reference to objects which students are able to see. Teaching takes the form of on-site classes and seminars. Students are expected to be assiduous in reading around the subject of each class. A general bibliography is to be found from page 17. Additional reading matter may be recommended by individual lecturers. This course is examined only by a visual analysis paper.
2. Papers 2/3 and 4/5 XE "Papers 2/3 and 4/5" . These consist of two term-long courses devoted to specific periods and issues. Students attend lectures and seminars, and prepare weekly written work on which they are supervised in small groups. Both papers run concurrently with Paper 1 XE "Paper 1" . Papers 4/5, taught in the Michaelmas Term, concern how works of art and architecture are interpreted in the light of cultural traditions. In contrast, Papers 2/3, taught in the Lent Term, concern how works of art are made. Papers 4/5 are organised into two parts of four weeks each, while Papers 2/3 are organised into three parts of two or three weeks each. The numbering of the Papers reflects the way they are examined in the Easter Term: Papers 2 and 4 are essay papers, 3 and 5 visual analysis papers.
3.A Short Dissertation. This is a piece of written work XE "Long Essay" of 5,000 words maximum to be submitted for examination not later than 12 noon on Friday 10 May 2013, on a work of art or architecture in or around Cambridge. The subject is chosen in consultation with the Director of Studies. The Director of Studies will recommend another person to advise on reading and travel and supervise the Short Dissertation, or will do so him/herself if appropriate. No more than ONE hour-long supervision may be sought from the adviser in total.
If the student wishes a draft of the essay to be read by a member of staff, the Director of Studies (rather than the supervisor) may read ONE draft and offer advice on presentation. The draft must be submitted in sufficient time, to be agreed with the Director of Studies, for students to be able to respond to the comments which are made on their work.
Note that a tariff of 1% will be deducted for every 100 words over the word limit of undergraduate dissertations. As stated above the word limit for Part I is 5000 words. The word limit excludes bibliography, but include footnotes/endnotes and appendices. Candidates who wish to submit an appendix which takes the submitted dissertation over the stated word-limit must first discuss it with their Director of Studies. If the Director of Studies is convinced that an appendix is necessary, he or she will then inform the Chairman of Examiners. Appendices will only be granted in exceptional circumstances, in order, for example, to allow a student to include unknown and important primary documentary evidence necessary to support their arguments.
The Weekly Essay XE "weekly Essay" Presentation: Essays must be typed and should be about 2000 words long, unless your supervisor informs you otherwise. Pages should be numbered consecutively, with adequate margins on both sides, and the text must be double-spaced. Please staple or clip the pages together and make sure that your name and that of your supervisor appear on the front page.
Bibliography and footnotes: Each essay must provide a bibliography at the end, including every source which has been consulted to research and write this piece of work. All quotations must be credited in footnotes or endnotes. For further details please see the Style Sheet for History of Art Essays and Dissertations that appears as Appendix B in the Student Handbook. There are several systems of citation which you are welcome to use, but you must be consistent with the system which you choose, and must in every case include author, title, date, city of publication, and page numbers, if necessary, for a book, and author, article title, journal title, volume/issue, date, and pages numbers for articles. The Harvard or Chicago referencing system, or the system of the Journal of the Warburg & Courtauld Institute (which is explained in detail at the back of any issue of the journal), are all acceptable systems of citation for undergraduate work.
References: Downloading of prepared texts from the internet is not allowed. Excerpts from a written source, whether published or unpublished, must be acknowledged with a footnote or endnote. Never lift whole sentences or paragraphs from some written source without putting them in quotation marks and acknowledging them. Summaries or paraphrases of another persons ideas must also be acknowledged with a footnote/endnote referencing the relevant source. If you are in any doubt about what constitutes plagiarism, you should consult your supervisor or Director of Studies. Failure to do this may lead to accusations of plagiarism.
The University takes plagiarism very seriously. In an extreme case, it could lead to the withholding of a degree, regardless of intent to deceive. For more information see http://www.cam.ac.uk/plagiarism/. Detailed information on plagiarism is also published in the Departments Student Handbook which can be downloaded from the History of Art intranet (www.hoart.cam.ac.uk).Essays must be submitted in good time by arrangement with the supervisor. Please note that supervisors are not obliged to read and mark essays which are handed in late, nor to accept e-mailed copies.
It is not acceptable to miss supervisions except in case of illness, when it is polite to forewarn the supervisor if possible. Many colleges now charge students for any supervisions which are missed without an acceptable reason.
Academic Skills
The Department runs various sessions on Academic Skills at strategic points in the academic year (see timetables for each term). In the Michaelmas Term there is a seminar on study skills and, in the Lent Term, a seminar on the Short Dissertation and various practical sessions on the techniques of painting, drawing and sculpture.
In addition, Myke Clifford, the Chief Faculty Photographer, is able to help with the theory and practice of photography and digital image processing. The photography studio is available during the week for any practical photography and processing. Students should book in advance.
Students are expected to attend all of these sessions, which form a vital component of the course. Students who do not attend lectures, seminars and supervisions will be seriously disadvantaged in their exams.
COURSE DETAILS
XE "Course Details" Paper 1 XE "Paper 1" : The Objects of Art History
(Michaelmas, Lent and first half of Easter Term) XE "The Objects of Art History" Dr John Munns and others
The purpose of this paper is to offer students a practical survey of the history of art (Western and some non-Western) with reference to objects in Cambridge, and the Fitzwilliam Museum especially. The contents of the course will change from year to year. The collections of the Fitzwilliam are extensive, and while at Cambridge students of the History of Art will get to know them well. Paper 1 XE "Paper 1" teaching takes the form of classes taught in front of specific works of art or architecture on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 2 pm or 3pm sharp throughout the academic year, unless otherwise indicated. Lecturers are asked to provide a hand-out and bibliography for each class. Paper 4/5 XE "Paper 4/5" (first half of Michaelmas Term)
The Meaning of Architecture XE "The Meaning of Architecture and Art" Prof Deborah Howard and others
This part of the course consists of Lectures at 10 am on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays, and Seminars at 2 pm or 3 pm on Monday, unless otherwise indicated.
This course will discuss the ways in which buildings can express ideas and emotions, through architectural language, light, space and materials. Buildings are constructed as settings for human activity, but their forms, proportions and decoration also convey a range of cultural meanings.
The course will run from antiquity to 1600 approximately but with later architecture as appropriate. No previous knowledge of architecture is assumed. Most buildings discussed in lectures will be canonical examples described in survey textbooks, and architectural jargon will be avoided as far as possible.
The themes of the four weeks are: Introducing the Language of Architecture; Designing Architecture: Materials, Proportions and Buildability; Architecture and the Body; Sacred and Secular Symbolism in Architecture. Paper 4/5xe "Paper 4/5" (second half of Michaelmas Term)
The Meaning of Artxe "The Meaning of Architecture and Art"Dr David Oldfield and others
This part of the course consists of Lectures at 10 am on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays, and Seminars at 2 pm or 3 pm on Monday, unless otherwise indicated.
The aim of this course is two-fold. Firstly, the lectures and seminars are designed to provide an overview of the variety of genres in medieval and early modern painting in Europe. We will explore both religious and secular pictorial themes and their historical development.
Secondly, this course aims to familiarise students with methods of interpretation, their potential, and their limitations. Students are expected to apply these methodological tools critically, and to consider different ways in which to analyse pictorial narrative and composition. Emphasis is given to works of art in Cambridge and London collections. However, the lectures will complement the seminars in the museums with a discussion of other relevant paintings held in collections elsewhere.
The seminars throughout Paper 4/5 will involve further discussion around set texts, which will be supplied to students as the course progresses.
Paper 2/3 (Lent Term)
The Making of Art XE "The Making of Art" Vivien Perutz, Paul Shakeshaft and others
This course consists of Lectures at 10am on Tuesdays and Thursdays, Seminars at 2 pm or 3 pm on Mondays, and various Site Seminars, often on Fridays. Please see the timetable below for full details. Seminars include trips to the Fitzwilliam Museum, the Hamilton Kerr Institute, and Kettles Yard.
Weeks 1-3
A: Techniques and Developments in Painting and Drawing, c. 1300-1700 This part of the course will examine the relation of technique and style in paintings and drawings from the fourteenth to the seventeenth centuries. In considering painting, it will look closely at the effects artists obtained by variations of support and paint application. In the case of drawing, which was generally employed as preparation for other works, the course aims to familiarise students with some of the main stages and techniques habitually employed by artists. Techniques will be studied not as ends in themselves, but in their historical place, and with reference to the changing aims and ideals of art.
Weeks 4-5
B. Techniques and Developments in Sculpture and Printmaking, c. 1300-1700
This part of the course will examine the technical and stylistic developments that have taken place in the field of sculpture (mainly Italian) from the early Renaissance to c. 1700. Some lectures will take the form of general surveys of particular periods; others will take a monographic approach, and focus on the oeuvre of key sculptors. Different printmaking techniques on wood and metal will also be investigated, together with the varied functions that they served.
Weeks 6-8
C. Techniques and Developments in Painting and Sculpture, c. 1700-1900 This part of the course will explore the connections between style, technique and training in painting and sculpture from the eighteenth to the turn of the twentieth century. It will consider how changes in institutional settings and material conditions, such as the emergence of public art in the Academies, or the standardisation of painting materials in the mid-nineteenth century, affected artists aims and methods. Thematic lectures will address issues such as plein-air painting, the relationship between sketch and finish, and the embrace of primitive techniques by avant-garde artists at the turn of the century.
The Short Dissertation XE "Part I Long Essay" The following rules for presentation apply to all Short Dissertations:
1.The Candidates name should not appear anywhere on the Short Dissertation. On the front cover you must supply the following:
(i) Title of the dissertation
(ii) Description i.e. Short Dissertation, Part I
(iii) Date
(iv) Candidate number
(v) Word count, including all footnotes/endnotes, but excluding the bibliography
2.Title: By Friday 15 February 2013 a candidate should have settled, in consultation with his/her Director of Studies, the subject and title of the Short Dissertation, and should have informed the Departmental Secretary. Subjects and titles of Short Dissertations will be approved formally by the Faculty Board of Architecture and History of Art. The title should simply state the artist/architect and title of the work of art/architecture which forms the focus of your essay. It should NOT be in the form of a question, quotation, description or statement. You should consult your Director of Studies about the subject of your Short Dissertation in good time before the deadline for submitting the title.
3.Date of submission: TWO COPIES of the Short Dissertation XE "Dissertations" must be submitted to the Departmental Secretary, in accordance with detailed arrangements approved by the Faculty Board, by Friday 10 May 2012. A severe penalty will result from late submission, namely that for every day or part day that the Short Dissertation is late, 3% will be deducted from its final mark. This will apply without exception unless the student provides a Tutors note detailing any extenuating circumstances resulting in late submission. Please note that technical problems of any nature, for example computer/printer failure or binding difficulties, are unacceptable as extenuating circumstances.
4.Length: Short Dissertations are not to exceed 5,000 words, excluding bibliography but including footnotes/endnotes and appendices. A valuable part of the academic exercise provided by the Short Dissertation is to argue ones case within the prescribed length. A candidate will disadvantage her/himself if the Short Dissertation falls well short of, or seriously exceeds, the prescribed length, as marks will be deducted for failing to meet the criteria of the exercise. Please remember that you must state the word count, excluding bibliography but including footnotes/endnotes and appendices, on the front cover of your work. Note that a tariff of 1% will be deducted for every 100 words over the word limit.
5.Bibliography, footnotes: Each Short Dissertation must include a bibliography, in correct scholarly form, of the works consulted and, where appropriate, a table of bibliographical abbreviations. Footnotes/endnotes should be used to give precise reference to particular documents or publications, and, if appropriate, to expand points made in the text. Reference to books and periodicals and other articles in the bibliography and footnotes should follow a recognised system such as that used in The Journal of the Warburg and Courtauld Institutes or The Art Bulletin. Whichever system is adopted, consistency is essential. Students will be penalised for the failure to observe one or other system.
If a candidate has any doubts or queries about this aspect of the Short Dissertation XE "Long Essay" he/she should consult his/her Director of Studies.
6.Format: The written part of the essay is to be typed (with double spacing and adequate margins) on A4 size paper, and all pages should be numbered consecutively. It should be suitably bound (samples from previous years can be seen in the Departmental Secretarys office), and it is the candidates responsibility to ensure that sufficient time is allowed for this before the deadline. It is advisable to retain a duplicate of the typescript in addition to the two submitted copies.
7.Illustrations: Illustrations (whether photographs, photocopies, plans or original drawings) are either to be mounted securely with the typescript, or included in a separate volume if their size etc. makes such mounting inconvenient or impossible. They may also be scanned into the text. Care must be taken that every illustration has a caption and a number to correspond with the reference in the text. Captions for illustrations should include the following information: artist/architect, title of work, date, location, media, dimensions. A page of contents and a list of plates should also be included.
8.In exceptional cases ancillary materials e.g. videos may be submitted in support of an essay, but candidates must discuss the scope and extent of such materials with their Director of Studies or the Head of Department prior to submitting the essay.
9.Plagiarism is unacceptable and any student found to be unfairly plagiarising other work will be severely penalised (see section on plagiarism under The Weekly Essay above).
10. Acknowledgement: Brief formal acknowledgement should be made to persons from whom information or suggestions have been received.
11. Arrangements after the Tripos: The Examiners may invite selected candidates to deposit one copy of their Short Dissertation in the Department, these to be made available for reference but not, of course, for publication in whole or in part without the express permission of the author. Other candidates should reclaim their Short Dissertations from the Departmental Secretary as soon as possible after the Class List has been posted at the Senate House.
A Session will be held on the Short Dissertation XE "Long Essay" on Wednesday 23 January 2013 and any further questions will be answered then.
BIBLIOGRAPHIES
Most, if not all, of these books are available in the Faculty Library. However, such is demand for particular texts that you will have to use the University Library and your college library as well. If the college library does not have core books for the course please ask the college librarian to order them. College librarians are always happy to build up their stock of core texts for university courses. They may request a letter of support, which your Director of Studies will be happy to provide. The works listed here are by no means the only ones relevant to the course you will be taking. Supervisors may recommend additional or alternative books and articles.

2012-2013
This paper runs throughout the year from the beginning of the Michaelmas Term to the end of the teaching period in the middle of the Easter Term, and is compulsory for all Part 1 students. It usually requires attendance at two seminars each week during full term.The purpose of the paper is to give students a broad overview of art and architecture from the Classical period to the present day. In doing this it draws on the extraordinarily rich artistic and architectural resources available in and around Cambridge. Each seminar involves a first-hand engagement with the materials to be explored and is led by a relevant expert in the field. There are no supervisions or weekly essay requirements for this paper, but students are strongly encouraged to read about and explore the objects studied in their own time, based on the supplementary bibliographies and hand-outs provided by the lecturers each session. The course will be examined by one three-hour visual analysis paper in the Easter Term.
For most sessions the group will be split in two and the sessions will be delivered to each group separately. This is to enable all to engage with both the objects and the lecturers as easily as possible. You MUST attend the session to which you have been assigned. If this is impossible you must arrange a swap with a member of the other group and inform the co-ordinator (Dr Munns) ahead of time. If you turn up to the wrong session you will be turned away.
Each weekend you will receive an email detailing where and when you are to meet for that weeks sessions. Please make sure you read this carefully and follow the instructions contained in it.
The overall co-ordinator for this course is: Dr John Munns
Fitzwilliam College
Please contact Dr Munns with any problem or questions.
