It is an interdisciplinary（各學(xué)科間的） program that introduces us to that period in European history conventionally termed the Renaissance - very roughly the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries in Italy, the sixteenth century in northern and western Europe, 1500-1660 in England. Those choosing the major study several aspects of this rich civilization, including visual arts, social and political history, history of ideas and philosophy, religion, literature, and history of music. Such study of a distant era demands and fosters a capacity for intellectual flexibility; wh
at to be learned are the various languages of the eras visual arts, of early Protestantism (新教) and the Counter-Reformation, of records and objects, of Renaissance music, lyric poetry, epic, drama, and prose narrative. The programs challenge lies partly in the need to grasp systems of munication different from our own but possessing their own coherence and intricate (復(fù)雜的) relationships to each other.
