Subject matter

In this seminar will be discussed and taking into account the great transversal themes to art history and art historiography. In the academic year 2015/2016 the great theme will be \"The Power of Images and the Images of Power\", around which we intend to organize different modules. This vast theme proves to be very useful for PhD students, since it cuts across the current issues of art history as well as other previous chronological periods.
