| Summary: | These especially commissioned essays open up a fascinating perspective on a crucial era of western culture. In the second century CE the Roman empire dominated the Mediterranean, but Greek culture maintained its huge prestige. At the same time, Christianity and Judaism were vying for followers against the lures of such an elite cultural life. This book looks at how writers in Greek from all areas of Empire society respond to their political position, to intellectual authority, to religions and social pressures. It explores the interesting cultural clashes from which Christianity emerged to dominate the Empire. It presents a series of brilliant insights into how the culture of Empire functions and offers a fascinating and alternative understanding of the long history of imperialism and cultural conflict |

Zeitlin "Greece is the world" : exile and identity in the second sophistic Tim Whitmarsh Local heroes : athletics, festivals and elite self-fashioning in the Roman east Onno van Nijf The rabbi in Aphrodite's bath : Palestinian society and Jewish identity in the high Roman Empire Seth Schwartz These especially commissioned essays open up a fascinating perspective on a crucial era of western culture. In the second century CE the Roman empire dominated the Mediterranean, but Greek culture maintained its huge prestige. At the same time, Christianity and Judaism were vying for followers against the lures of such an elite cultural life. This book looks at how writers in Greek from all areas of Empire society respond to their political position, to intellectual authority, to religions and social pressures. It explores the interesting cultural clashes from which Christianity emerged to dominate the Empire. It presents a series of brilliant insights into how the culture of Empire functions and offers a fascinating and alternative understanding of the long history of imperialism and cultural conflict Geschichte 100-200 gnd rswk-swf Geschichte Sophists (Greek philosophy) Second Sophistic movement Literatur (DE-588)4035964-5 gnd rswk-swf Griechisch (DE-588)4113791-7 gnd rswk-swf Griechen (DE-588)4022046-1 gnd rswk-swf Kulturelle Identität (DE-588)4033542-2 gnd rswk-swf Rom Rome / History / Empire, 30 B.C.-284 A.D.
