ARTH 4517
Saving Synagogues: Architecture, Historic Preservation and Communication

Course information provided by the Courses of Study 2016-2017.

For almost two thousand years the synagogue has been the focal point of Jewish life and identity. It has been the most prominent of Jewish buildings, for Jews and non-Jews. Thousands of synagogues have been built, but few synagogues are included in the traditional corpus of architectural history. Until recently, there was little systematic information on synagogue history, design and condition. 

When Offered Spring.
