Greek architectural, artistic and craftmanship culture from the birth of urban culture to the Classical and Hellenistic period. After a brief introduction on the history of discipline, the course aims to illustrate the development of the architectural, artistic and craftmanship culture of the Greek civilization of historical time, starting from the collapse of the Mycenaean palatial civilization and continuing through the subsequent phases of the proto-geometric, geometric and therefore archaic age, in the light of the long process of formation of the Greek polis and its urban culture. The course will therefore face the phase of classical age following the Persian wars, with particular attention to the most important artistic and craftmanship manifestations of the city of Athens in the fifth century B.C. and to the developments of classical figurative culture in the mainland Greece and Asia Minor in the fourth century B.C. until the end of the Greek poleis and the coming to power of Alexander the Great. Finally, the characteristics of Greek art of the Hellenistic period will be examined, with special attention to its various production centers connected with the new political reality of the Greek world of this period. In particular, during the course, the most significant monuments and works of art of sculptural and pictorial production will be examined, in order to illustrate the different phases and developments of Greek art.
