While comparative studies on purity and impurity presented in the last decades have mostly concentrated on the ancient world or on modern developments, this volume focusses the hitherto comparatively neglected period between circa 300 and 1600 c. E. The collection is innovative because it not only combines papers on both European and Asian cultures but also considers a wide variety of religions and confessions. The articles are written by leading experts in the field and are presented in six systematic sections. This analytical categorization facilitates understanding the functional spectrum that the binomial purity and impurity could cover in past societies. The volume thus presents an in-depth comparative analysis of a category of paramount importance for interfaith relations and processes of transfer.

This volume comprises fifteen articles on the differing functions that purity, impurity, pollution and related categories could fulfil in Asian and European religions and societies of the 3rd to 17th century c.E. They focus processes of religious demarcation and transfer.

Stuart Miller examines the hermeneutical challenges posed by the material and literary evidence pertaining to ritual purity practices in Graeco-Roman Palestine and, especially, the Galilee. He contends that "stepped pools," which we now know were in use well beyond the Destruction of the Temple, and, as indicated by the large collection on the western acropolis of Sepphoris and elsewhere, into the Middle and Late Roman/Byzantine eras,must be understood in light of biblical and popular perspectives on ritual purity. The interpretation of the finds is too frequently forced to conform to rabbinic prescriptions, which oftentimes were the result of the sages' unique and creative, nominalist approach to ritual purity. Special attention is given to the role ritual purity continued to play in the lives of ordinary Jews despite (or because of) the loss of the Temple.

The concepts of purity and pollution are fundamental to the worldview reflected in the Hebrew Bible yet the ways that biblical texts apply these concepts to sexual relationships remain largely overlooked. Sexual Pollution in the Hebrew Bible argues that the concept of pollution is rooted in disgust and that pollution language applied to sexual relations expresses a sense of bodily contamination resulting from revulsion. Most texts in the Hebrew Bible that use pollution language in sexual contexts reflect a conception of women as sexual property susceptible to being "ruined" for particular men through contamination by others. In contrast, the Holiness legislation of the Pentateuch applies pollution language to men who engage in transgressive sexual relations, conveying the idea that male bodily purity is a prerequisite for individual and communal holiness.Sexual transgressions contaminate the male body and ultimately result in exile when the land vomits out its inhabitants. The Holiness legislation's conception of sexual pollution, which is found in Leviticus 18, had a profound impact on later texts. In the book of Ezekiel, it contributes to a broader conception of pollution resulting from Israel's sins, which led to the Babylonian exile. In the book of Ezra, it figures in a view of the Israelite community as a body of males contaminated by foreign women. Yet the idea of female pollution rooted in a view of women as sexual property persisted alongside the idea of male pollution as an impediment to holiness. Eva Feinstein illuminates why the idea of pollution adheres to particular domains of experience, including sex, death, and certain types of infirmity. Sexual Pollution in the Hebrew Bible allows for a more thorough understanding of sexual pollution, its particular characteristics, and the role that it plays in biblical literature.

Abstoßung und Anreiz, Verbieten und Verschweigen, Thematisierung und Dethematisierung - dem Tabu wohnen Ambivalenzen inne, die auf besondere Weise für historische Beobachtungen produktiv gemacht werden können. Seit der kreativen Neuentdeckung durch Freud steht das Tabu im Zeichen einer Beobachtung eigener Kultur und zielt auf die Entdeckung von verborgenen gesellschaftlichen Vektoren. Die Beiträge des Bandes gehen den Spuren dieser produktiven Ambivalenz in Texten und Artefakten vergangener und gegenwärtiger Verhältnisse nach. Dabei stehen die politischen ebenso wie die ästhetischen und epistemischen Dimensionen des Tabus im Mittelpunkt. Ob beim Engel der Paulusapokalypse, im Schoß der mittelalterlichen Königin, in der Hollywood-Produktion »Minority Report« oder in den aktuellen Diskussionen zum deutschen Inzestverbot - Tabus werden da sichtbar, wo in der kulturellen Performanz Reibung entsteht. Viele Erkenntisse aus der Tabuforschung unterhalten den Leser, ganz gleich, ob er mit wissenschaftlichem Anspruch an den Text geht oder aus schlichter Neugierde.« Ulrich Brömmling, www.broemmling.de, 07.02.2017

Heiligkeit ist bis heute ein nicht klar definiertes Phänomen, das je nach gesellschaftlichem Umfeld unterschiedlich ausgerichtet sein kann. Der schmale Grat zwischen Heiligkeit und Häresie steht im Mittelpunkt dieses Bandes, der die Frage nach Sakralität und der Abweichung von der Norm aufgreift. Verschiedene historische Muster und Lösungswege gewährleisten Einblicke in den Umgang mit Abweichungen. Vertreter unterschiedlicher Disziplinen wie der Geschichtswissenschaft, der Germanistik, der vergleichenden Religionswissenschaft und der Indologie untersuchen die Aspekte von Sakralisierungsmaßnahmen und deviantem Verhalten und ermöglichen damit einen interdisziplinäreren Vergleich.

Ces contributions analysent la nécessité pour une société de se doter de tabous (alimentaires, sexuels, religieux, etc.) qui, inévitablement, sont accompagnés de transgressions. La problématique est centrée sur l'univers biblique (Mésopotamie, Israël ancien, Egypte ancienne) avec deux articles consacrés à la Grèce ancienne et au monde arabe médiéval. ©Electre 2016
