WiSe 15/16: Writing Workshop: Towards an Expressive Art History

Wendy Shaw

Additional information / Pre-requisites

The workshop is bilingual: materials will be in English, but students are free to write and discuss in German or English. Grading will be based on participation and collective exchange. Although geared towards MA students, advanced BA students are welcome to participate. close

Comments

This workshop will engage students in organised peer review of guided short essays in order to develop critical writing skills required for a wide range of purposes, including grant writing, publication, and constructive critique. Beyond straightforward rules of "academic" writing, it will encourage participants to consider art history as a practice of inscription, and consider their emerging role within a discursive disciplinary -- and extra-disciplinary -- framework. It will encourage students to consider their relationship with questions such as: What does it mean to write art history? How does one develop effective and evocative scholarly writing? How does one develop informed opinions through which to articulate ideas broader than a given object? How does one create a community of effective peer review? close
