Abstract

Welche Bedeutung kam dem biographischen Wissenssegment im Kontext der Bildungskultur des 2. Jh. n. Chr. zu? Welche Formen wurden von zeitgenössischen Autoren zur literarischen Präsentation von Personen gewählt? Unter dieser doppelten Leitfrage werden hier Personendarstellungen in den Briefen des jüngeren Plinius, dem Miszellanwerk des Gellius und den Kaiserbiographien Suetons in einer gattungsübergreifend angelegten Perspektive untersucht. Zu den Gemeinsamkeiten, die sich auf diese Weise beobachten lassen, gehören das normative Potential historischer Figuren, die Kommemoration von Zeitgenossen und die Interaktion mit den kommunikativen Rahmenbedingungen der römischen Kaiserzeit. Eine solche funktionsgeschichtliche Betrachtungsweise zeigt ferner, dass es sich bei vielen der Charakteristika der untersuchten Autoren, die bislang als Abweichungen von der jeweiligen Gattungstradition kritisiert wurden, um bewusste Entwicklungen handelt, die eng auf ihren gemeinsamen gesellschaftlichen und kulturellen Kontext bezogen sind. What role did biographies play for the intelligentsia of the 2nd century AD? What literary forms were used by contemporary authors in their personal portrayals? These two questions have led to this cross-genre investigation of the personal portraits in the letters of Pliny the Younger, in the miscellaneous work of Gellius, and in the Lives of the Caesars by Suetonius. Among the common features which can thus be observed are the normative potential of historical figures, the commemoration of contemporaries, and the interaction with communicative conditions of the Roman Empire. Such a functional and historical perspective further demonstrates that many of the characteristics of the featured authors, which to date have been seen as deviations from the genre tradition, are, in actuality, conscious developments, closely related to the authors' common social and cultural background.
