Die in diesem Band vorgelegten Beitrage eroffnen aus verschiedenen Perspektiven hochst originelle Einblicke in die wirklichen Verhaltnisse wahrend des sog. Konstantinischen Zeitalters. Wie stellte sich das Heidentum dar; wie und wo blieb es deutlich erkennbar? Wie stand es um die Rolle des christlichen Kaisertums, die Heidengesetzgebung und ihren Erfolg, die (auch in christlichen Kreisen geubte) Magie, die Beurteilung der paganen Religiositat durch die christlichen Historiker, die literarische Verarbeitung des Falls Roms bei Heiden und Christen? Diese und ahnliche Fragen - wie z.B. Bedeutung der Widerlegung von Julians Contra Galileos durch Cyrill von Alexandrien - werden eingehend behandelt.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The development of Early Christian rituals in connection with death and burial has so far not sufficiently been explored. Volp’s study focuses on the surviving literary sources—both pagan and Christian—, together with inscriptions and other archaeological remains while taking into account recent results from science and humanities. A summary of death and ritual in the ancient Mediterranean religions is followed by detailed analyses of the Christian sources from the 2nd to the 5th century. Thus, basic developments are being discovered which led to and accompanied the forming of Christian rituals, such as ritual purity or the social structure of family and society. Being the first such interdisciplinary approach, it also represents the first monographic work on the topic since 1941.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most surveys of religious tolerance and intolerance start from the medieval and early modern period, either passing over or making brief mention of discussions of religious moderation and coercion in Greco-Roman antiquity. Here Maijastina Kahlos widens the historical perspective to encompass late antiquity, examining ancient discussions of religious moderation and coercion in their historical contexts. The relations and interactions between various religious groups, especially pagans and Christians, are scrutinized, and the stark contrast often drawn between a tolerant polytheism and an intolerant Christianity is replaced by a more refined portrait of the complex late antique world.

Book excerpt: This book explores the construction of Christian identity in fourth and fifth centuries through inventing, fabricating and sharpening binary oppositions. Such oppositions, for example Christians - pagans; truth - falsehood; the one true god - the multitude of demons; the right religion - superstition, served to create and reinforce the Christian self-identity. The author examines how the Christian argumentation against pagans was intertwined with self-perception and self-affirmation. Discussing the relations and interaction between pagan and Christian cultures, this book aims at widening historical understanding of the cultural conflicts and the otherness in world history, thus contributing to the ongoing discussion about the historical and conceptual basis of cultural tolerance and intolerance. This book offers a valuable contribution to contemporary scholarly debate about Late Antique religious history and the relationship between Christianity and other religions.
