Abstract

Religieuze rituelen en festivals bepaalden het ritme van het dagelijks leven in de klassieke oudheid. Mensen vereerden veel verschillende goden. Soms kwamen er nieuwe bij en boetten andere aan populariteit in. Niet iedereen vereerde dezelfde goden en sommige filosofen twijfelden zelfs aan het bestaan van goden überhaupt. In dit dynamische religieuze landschap ontstonden ook de eerste christelijke gemeenschappen.In Leven met de goden belicht historica Inger N.I. Kuin het kleurrijke en complexe religieuze leven van de oude Grieken en Romeinen en de vroege geschiedenis van het christendom. Hoe werd er in de oudheid omgegaan met religieuze diversiteit en met religieuze verandering? En hoe kritisch mochten gelovigen zijn? Sommige aspecten, zoals dionysische extase, laten zien hoe anders antieke religie was. Andere elementen zijn door de eeuwen heen onverminderd actueel gebleven, zoals corrupte priesters en religieuze intolerantie. https://nl.aup.nl/books/9789462984806-leven-met-de-goden.html

Abstract

Crises resulting from war or other upheavals turn the lives of individuals upside down, and they can leave marks on a community for many years after the event. This volume aims to explore how such crises were remembered in the ancient world, and how communities reconstituted themselves after a crisis. Can crises serve as catalysts for innovation or change, and how does this work? What do crises reveal about the'normality'against which they are defined and framed? People living in post-crisis societies have no choice but to adapt to the changes caused by crisis. Such adaptation entails the question of how the relationship between the pre-crisis situation and the new status quo is constructed, and by whom. Due to the reduced possibility of using the immediate past, which is tainted by conflict and bad memories, it may involve revisions of historical narratives about communal pasts and identities, through the selection of new'anchors', and sometimes even a discarding of the old ones. Crises affect all areas of life, and crisis recovery likewise spans different spheres. This volume finds traces of such recovery strategies in texts as well as visual representations; in literary as well as in documentary texts; in official ideology as much as in subaltern responses. The contributors bring together the diverse testimonies for such ways of coping that have survived from antiquity.

Abstract

Van wie is de Oudheid? Deze essaybundel draagt bij aan het belangrijke debat over de inclusiviteit van de oudheidwetenschappen en stelt de dubbelvraag 'wie bestudeert de Oudheid en welke Oudheid bestuderen we eigenlijk?' De bijdragen aan deze bundel werpen vanuit verschillende perspectieven licht op de diversiteit van de Oudheid en de bestudering daarvan. Van de angst voor immigranten tot de huidskleur van Cleopatra.

Abstract

The distinction between ancient and modern modes of historical thought is characterized by the growing complexity of the discipline of history in modernity. Consequently, the epistemological and methodological standard of ancient historiography is typically held as inferior against the modern ideal. This book serves to address this apparent deficit. Its scope is three-fold. Firstly, it aims at encountering ancient modes of historical and historiographical thought within the province of their own horizon. Secondly, this book considers the possibility of a dialogue between ancient and modern philosophies of history concerning the influence of ancient historical thought on the development of modern philosophy of history and the utility of modern philosophy of history in the interpretation of ancient historiography. Thirdly, this book explores the continuities and discontinuities in historical method and thought from antiquity to modernity. Ultimately, this volume demonstrates the necessity of re-evaluating our assumptions about the relation of ancient and modern historical thought and lays the groundwork for a more fruitful dialogue in the future.
