TOLETUM, das "Netzwerk zur Erforschung der Iberischen Halbinsel in der Antike", legt mit diesem Band erstmals ein deutsch-spanisches Kompendium zur Städteforschung vor. In 36 Beiträgen gewährt eine neue Generation von Wissenschaftlerinnen und Wissenschaftlern Einblick in ihre Untersuchungen einer Region des Mittelmeerraums, die wie keine andere in den vergangenen drei Jahrzehnten durch spektakuläre Neufunde auf sich aufmerksam gemacht hat: Das Amphitheater von Corduba, das Theater und Forum von Carthago Nova oder Caesaraugusta, Teile der Stadtanlage von Segobriga und das Senatus consultum de Cn. Pisone patre, die Lex Irnitana - ja über 20.000 Inschriften. Auf der Grundlage eines interdisziplinären und traditionelle Periodisierungen überschreitenden Ansatzes bieten die Analysen von Stadtanlagen wie epigraphischen Monumenten neue Erkenntnisse in die bauliche Ausgestaltung und soziale Organisation der "Lebenswelt Stadt" zwischen Rom und al-Andalus.

The Power of Cities focuses on Iberian cities during the lengthy transition from the late Roman to the early modern period, with a particular interest in the change from early Christianity to the Islamic period, and on to the restoration of Christianity. Drawing on case studies from cities such as Toledo, Cordoba, and Seville, it collects for the first time recent research in urban studies using both archaeological and historical sources. Against the common portrayal of these cities characterized by discontinuities due to decadence, decline and invasions, it is instead continuity – that is, a gradual transformation – which emerges as the defining characteristic. The volume argues for a fresh interpretation of Iberian cities across this period, seen as a continuum of structural changes across time, and proposes a new history of the Iberian Peninsula, written from the perspective of the cities. Contributors are Javier Arce, María Asenjo González, Antonio Irigoyen López, Alberto León Muñoz, Matthias Maser, Sabine Panzram, Gisela Ripoll, Torsten dos Santos Arnold, Isabel Toral-Niehoff, Fernando Valdés Fernández, and Klaus Weber.

How did the breakdown of Roman rule in the Iberian Peninsula eventually result in the formation of a Visigothic kingdom with authority centralised in Toledo? This collection of essays challenges the view that local powers were straightforwardly subjugated to the expanding central power of the monarchy. Rather than interpret countervailing events as mere 'delays' in this inevitable process, the contributors to this book interrogate where these events came from, which causes can be uncovered and how much influence individual actors had in this process. What emerges is a story of contested interests seeking cooperation through institutions and social practices that were flexible enough to stabilise a system that was hierarchical yet mutually beneficial for multiple social groups. By examining the Visigothic settlement, the interplay between central and local power, the use of ethnic identity, projections of authority, and the role of the Church, this book articulates a model for understanding the formation of a large and important early medieval kingdom. -- Back cover

Arbeiten zur Kirchengeschichte first began publication in 1925 and can claim to be one of the most tradition-rich historical book series. It presents research on the history of Christian churches and dogmas through the ages but also publishes papers on related disciplines such as archeology, history of art and literary studies. One of the series' leading features is its consistent striving to combine historical-methodical precision with systematic contextualization of each examined topic. In recent years the series has increasingly publishedstudies on themes relating to the history of Christian culture and ideas, viewed within a methodically open perspective on the history of Christianity.
