| Iconology is an interdisciplinary course which explores
the forms, symbols, images, and icons found in global
cultures, both past and present. This course analyzes both
sacred and secular icons through sacred
geometry, mythological systems, the languages of symbols,
and the archetypal patterns found in visual cultures.
Students will research nascent discoveries in neuro-science,
astronomy, evolution, physics, and art and architecture as
background for understanding why we create symbols, and
how these symbols shape our aesthetic understanding. Prerequisites:
