Senior Fresh and Junior Sophister
In their Senior Fresh and Junior Sophister years, students have an opportunity to develop their depth of knowledge and understanding of specific periods or themes of their choice. Subjects covered include medieval art and architecture, the Italian Renaissance, French and British art in the nineteenth century, and international Modernism. The modules explore art and architecture of various media, in the context of the environments of patronage and the politics of display. There are mandatory modules in Japanese (SF year) and as in theories and approaches relevant to the analysis of art (JS year). Modules on Irish art run in both years and may be substituted for interdisciplinary Trinity and School elective offerings.
