Syllabus
Vices and virtues - The course will focus on the gradual emergence of the septenary in iconographic representations of the deadly sins. Until the 14th century, the septenary of sins plays a secondary role in monumental art and literature. In the first decades of the 14th century, however, something changes in relation to the new social and political context.
The Hell - The new depictions of Hell also turn the horrific show into a moral lesson on sin. In particular, the course will focus on the depictions of Giotto in Padua, Buffalmacco in Pisa and Giovanni da Modena in Bologna.
