Abstract

The oath was an institution of fundamental importance across a wide range of social interactions throughout the ancient Greek world, making a crucial contribution to social stability and harmony; yet there has been no comprehensive, dedicated scholarly study of the subject for over a century. This volume of a two-volume study explores the nature of oaths as Greeks perceived it, the ways in which they were used (and sometimes abused) in Greek life and literature, and their inherent binding power.

Abstract

Im Karolingerreich war die Herstellung von Vertrauen eine unabdingbare Voraussetzung, um die politisch-soziale Ordnung zu stabilisieren und die Handlungsfähigkeit der politischen Akteure zu gewährleisten. In der späteren Karolingerzeit veranlassten Reichsteilungen, Herrscherabsetzungen und blutige Auseinandersetzungen eine vielfältige Inanspruchnahme des Eides, um in Zeiten tiefgreifender Konflikte neues Vertrauen zu generieren. Der vorliegende Band nimmt vor diesem Hintergrund die zeitgenössische Wahrnehmung des Eides in den Blick und untersucht, wie Zeitgenossen über den Eid als Vertrauensressource, seine soziale und religiöse Funktion sowie die aus seinem Ge- und Missbrauch resultierenden Konsequenzen nachgedacht haben. --

Abstract

Oaths, vows, promises, curses - all share family resemblances. They are performatives, carrying illocutionary force. Oaths have rightly been termed, "conditional self-curses", promises have been argued to be but a more developed form of vows, and oaths and vows are often used interchangeably. This book focuses on private vows and oaths including those publically proclaimed. Through analysis of legal, liturgical, mythical and literary works, it seeks to uncover a phenomenology of oaths and vows. Viewing oaths and vows as the human creative force par excellence, it surveys their role in circumscribing and directing both erotic desire and aggression; and so - in their performative function - as standing at the foundation of society and sociability. As acts of trust which establish new obligations understandings of the role of oaths and vows are compared in the Jewish and Christian contexts, in terms of the importance of intentionality in vow making and oath taking, as well as the nature of the obligations ensuing from such locutionary acts. Analysis of the comic and tragic consequences of the violation of marriage oaths as presented in European literature from the 12th to 19th centuries reveals their perception as "habituating" Eros.

Abstract

En dépit des nombreux travaux récents consacrés au Serment hippocratique, l’origine documentaire de ce célèbre écrit n’avait encore jamais fait l’objet d’une étude approfondie. Elle est pourtant mentionnée dès la première phrase du texte : « Je jure par Apollon médecin, par Asclépios, Hygie et Panacée, par tous les dieux et toutes les déesses, les prenant à témoin, de remplir, selon ma capacité et mon jugement, ce serment et ce contrat ». S’inscrivant dans une approche interdisciplinaire, le présent ouvrage réunit six contributions présentées lors de la Journée d’étude internationale En marge du Serment hippocratique : contrats et serments dans le monde gréco-romain, organisée à l’Université de Liège, le 29 octobre 2014, où, en confrontant les sources littéraires et documentaires, qu’elles soient de nature médicale, religieuse ou juridique, on s’est efforcé de replacer le fameux écrit attribué à Hippocrate dans son contexte originel : celui des contrats et serments antiques.
