Die Studie verbindet eine historische Einordnung der von 200 n. Chr. stammenden Verhaltensanweisungen für das tägliche Leben wohlhabender Christen und deren Verfasser mit einer Untersuchung des darin vermittelten Verhältnisses zum Körper: Fern von Leibfeindlichkeit verdeutlichen gesundheitsorientierte Normen die legitime Sorge für den Körper. Dennoch gibt es eine Furcht vor dem Körper, die dessen stete Kontrolle erforderlich macht. Pluspunkte gehört in den aktuell intensiv erforschten Bereich der "Zweiten Sophistik" verbindet historische, philologische, theologische Methoden und Erkenntnisse relevant auch für Medizinhistoriker The author examines the historical context of instructions for the everyday conduct of prosperous Christians and the authors of these instruction manuals from 200 AD and links this examination with a study of attitudes towards the human body as revealed in the instructions. The volume shows how, far from denying the body, the standards relating to health display a legitimate concern for bodily well-being. At the same time, however, there is a fear of the body, which makes it necessary to keep it constantly under control. Key Features it makes a contribution to the intensive research at present being conducted into the "Second Sophistic" it combines historical, philological, and theological methods and insights it is also of relevance for the history of medicine.

The first coherent and handy edition with commentaries of one oft he most important sources for history, administration and religious mentalities of the city of Rome in the 4th century A.D.The collection of pictures, lists and short notes, known as the "Chronography of 354" or the "Calendar of Filocalus" is a calendar handbook for the year 354 C.E. Of the thirteen texts, four are Christian documents; the remaining are witnesses of Roman administration and provide no clue for Christianity, or at times even attestations to the Roman religiosity of the Republic and the Imperial Time. The handbook contents can be distinguished by whether it has pictures or just text. Given the complexity of the present form of its constituents, the calendar handbook is an important source for the politic administrative history of the late-Constantine time, for the history of the transformation of religious mentalities, and for the success of the story of Christianity in the city of Rome. The following texts are especially noteworthy:(1) The consular fasti from the beginning of the consulate up to the year 354 CE, for the Roman History and the families that dominated it;(2) the yearly calendar for those festivals celebrated in late-Constantine time with their political and religio-historical dimension, which influenced the history of everyday life of the city;(3) the Catalogus Liberianus, the oldest Roman book of the popes, which together with the lists of the Deposito episcoporum and the Deposito martyrum, the oldest feriale of any Christian Church, is important for the Church of Rome and its conception of history.Notwithstanding a century-long history of editions and commentaries of the calendar handbook, there is up to the present no connected edition and commentary of the pertinent texts, only critical editions of individual parts. This is related to the complex tradition process and the preserved late manuscripts of the 16th and the 17th century. This poses a range of problems, which this edition and its commentaries tackle:(a) what all was part of the original calendar(b) when did the different texts and their redactions, which lead to the expansions, come into being(c) the perennial research problem of the relationship between the traditional Roman religion and Christianity, for which the texts of the chronographs provide crucial evidence(d) the position of the calendar handbook in the history of book illustration in LateAntiquity.Furthermore, since Mommsen's classical edition, a host of individual problems have been identified, which affect very different scientific endeavours, ranging from the studies of classical antiquities to theology and from cultural sciences to astronomy.Vol. 2: Fasti Consulares, Praefecti urbis Romae 254 - 354 A.D., Cpomputus Paschalis, Depositio martyrum, Depositio Episcoporum, Catalogus Liberianus Es handelt sich um die erste zusammenhängende Ausgabe mit Kommentar des Kalenderhandbuches, das mit seinen Texten eine wichtige Quelle zur Geschichte, Verwaltung und zu den religiösen Mentalitäten in der Stadt Rom im 4. Jahrhundert n.Chr. darstellt.

In principio era un uomo che interpretò la sua missione sulla terra nel senso di attrarre gli altri uomini fuori dai loro spazi (case, famiglie, attività, villaggi) e dal loro tempo (sto­rico) per condurli a sé verso altri spazi (ovunque egli andasse) in virtù dell’avvicendarsi di un altro tempo (escatologico). Quest’uomo fu condannato a morte e morì. A partire dai giorni immediatamente successivi alla sua creduta resurrezione, prende avvio il processo con cui altri uomini, in suo nome, si dedicano a ri-situare se stessi e l’uma­nità intera in quadri formali significativamente riconfigurati dall’evento cristico: luoghi al contempo mentali e sociali strutturati dalla duplice tensione tra gli spazi tradizionali del mondo e quelli peculiari della “chiesa”, tra il tempo presente della storia e quello della sua incipiente fine. In questo libro qualcosa come una nuova identità sociale dei credenti in Cristo è osservata nelle peripezie del suo costituirsi in relazione a quattro dei principali ambiti di soggettivazione del mondo antico: l’umanità, l’ethnos, la città, la scuola filosofica.

Kučar near Podzemelj represents one of the most significant archaeological sites not only in Slovenia but also in the wider southeastern alpine region. It is an extensive complex composed of an Iron Age and Late Roman settlement upon the hill Kučar, as well as numerous necropoli that are distributed throughout the villages of Podzemelj, Zemelj, Škrilje and Grm. The site is well-known all over the world for its elaborate material finds originating from the cemeteries there. The book presents the results from rescue excavations that were carried out between the years 1975 and 1979 on the northern top of Kučar by the Institute for Archaeology. Substantial remains of a settlement dating to the Early and Late Iron Ages (8th –1st centuries BC) were excavated, as well as the even more surprising discovery of an Early Christian building complex (5th century AD) incorporating two churches, a baptistery and a large building with an enclosing wall that was reinforced with two towers. This publication concerning the settlement on Kučar near Podzemelj is the third monograph regarding this site. The first two publications presented the material finds from the Iron Age necropolis, preserved at the National Museum in Ljubljana and at the Museum of Natural History in Vienna. This third publication includes a contribution by Metka Culiberg and Alojz Šercelj on the investigations of organic remains from Kučar. Kučar pri Podzemlju je eno najpomembnejših arheoloških najdišč ne le v Sloveniji ampak tudi na širšem jugovzhodnoalpskem prostoru. Gre za obsežen kompleks, v katerega sodi železnodobno in poznoantično naselje na hribu Kučarju in številne nekropole, ki so raztresene okoli vasi Podzemelj, Zemelj, Škrilje in Grm. V svetu je postal znan predvsem zaradi bogatih najdb iz tamkajšnjih grobišč. V knjigi so predstavljeni rezultati zaščitnih raziskovanj, ki jih je med leti 1975 in 1979 na severnem vrhu Kučarja opravil Inštitut za arheologijo. Takrat so bili namreč izkopani bogati ostanki naselja iz starejše in mlajše železne dobe (8.–1. stoletje pred n. št.), še večje presenečenje pa je bilo odkritje zgodnjekrščanskega stavbnega kompleksa (5. stoletje po n. št.) z dvema cerkvama, baptisterijem, veliko stavbo in obzidjem, ki je bilo ojačano z dvema stolpoma.

Die Lebenskultur der Spätantike war wesentlich durch das römische Spielewesen mit seinen Wagenrennen, Bühnenschauspielen und Arenakämpfen geprägt. Zum ersten Mal in der Forschung wird mit diesem Buch eine Gesamtstudie zum Thema spätrömischer Spiele vorgelegt. Der gesellschaftliche Umgang mit Spielen und ihre soziale Rolle werden am Beispiel der wichtigsten Akteure illustriert: der Kirche, den Herrschern, den städtischen Eliten und dem breiten Publikum. Der Fokus richtet sich dabei besonders auf die Situation in den Provinzen, abseits der Hauptstädte Rom und Konstantinopel. In einer gattungsspezifischen Betrachtung werden die Spektakel im Zirkus, im Theater und in der Arena zudem in ihren jeweils eigenen Entwicklungen untersucht. Neben schriftlichen Quellen basiert die Studie auf einer Vielzahl von epigraphischen, papyrologischen, numismatischen und archäologischen Zeugnissen. Auf diese Weise werden bisherige chronologische Einordnungen hinterfragt und nach Regionen genauer differenziert. Auch der Niedergang einzelner Gattungen wird einer neuen Betrachtung unterzogen. Somit leistet die Untersuchung einen grundlegenden Beitrag zum Verständnis städtischer Lebenskultur zwischen dem 4. und 7. Jahrhundert nach Christus.
