I appreciate the really in depth approach, especially of the Last judgement scene. As someone who's fairly new to the topic, it helps understand Christian art a whole lot better :D
I find it interesting that the verbiage you use to discuss relics is so respectful that you end up seemingly endorsing the idea that they are, in fact, miraculous and magical objects. I am not critical of this choice but, rather, curious about it as a teaching strategy. I remember as an undergraduate this way that medievalists spoke is what turned me off to this entire rich millennium of history - only to rediscover it in graduate school. Perhaps i was excessively sensitive as an 18yo - but the students we teach could be similarly immature. And we both know how medieval history has suffered in recent years when it comes to enrollment and, often, funding. Oh, yes, I'm another art historian. I was curious to see how someone more experienced covers this subject in an intro course. Up until now, i relied on a colleague to cover the period, but not all beautiful things are meant to last ...
No tiktok, plain and simple youtube search. I am enjoying this so much, so lively, relatable and digestible ;o) And, what's most important: the history surrounding the art. Thank you so much.
Sorry, architectural elevations are not about the interiors alone - mostly to do with the external.... It's Hildesheim...Hildes - heim, not hilde-sheim! It's sepulchre not seplechre.

I love how in depth and interesting these are but also fun, it makes the long lectures enjoyable to watch

“Apseception!” 😂 Really enjoy the jokes sprinkled throughout the lectures. Gives my brain a little dose of serotonin every time.
Yes, very clever turn of phrase. I'm impressed
