The Architecture of the Caucasus in the Global Middle Ages, lecture by Robert Ousterhout (University of Pennsylvania, Emeritus), American Research Institute in Turkey and Bilkent University via Zoom, February 20, 2022, 6:00 pm (Istanbul, UTC +3)
The stunning architecture of the medieval Caucasus is normally discussed in isolation, often limited by current national boundaries between eastern Turkey, Georgia, and Armenia. This talk attempts to view the architectural developments of the region more broadly, looking at critical moments in its history and how the monuments might be situated within a global perspective for the Middle Ages.
The lecture is cosponsored by ARIT and Bilkent University.
