Overview
The Roman Sarcophagi as Image Ensembles Certificate from University of Pisa Winter School is offered as part of a partnership between the University of Pisa (Italy) and the University of Kiel (Germany).
Key facts:
The Winter School addresses image relations on Roman sarcophagi, II-IV c. CE. While research usually focuses on the iconography of the front of the coffer, the exercise will address all image fields in their interdependence.
Consequently, the focus is on a limited group of sarcophagi, namely those for which a (securely associated) lid has survived. We will also analyse the spatial staging and its influence on the image design and image reception – if information is available. The geographical focus is on urban Roman sarcophagi.
Tuition fees are waived for students from the Universities of Pisa and Kiel.
The program will be activated also in distance learning mode (TEAMS platform).
