HUMN 303 Week 3 Discussion Question 1

HUMN 303N Week 3 Discussion

Locate at least two architectural works that were influenced by Greco-Roman architecture. These can be from any time period after the Greco-Roman period but should be from different periods themselves (e.g., one from Renaissance and one from Baroque). Then address the following:

What is the function of each structure?

How does each work exhibit influence of the Greco-Roman period? Is the influence specifically Greek, Etruscan, or Roman – or a combination?

How would you compare the two selected works? Take the roll of the evaluative critic.
