The book discusses the history and the archaeology of Jerusalem in the Roman period (70-400 CE) following a chronological order, from the establishment of the Tenth Roman Legion's camp on the ruins of Jerusalem in 70 CE, through the foundation of Aelia Capitolina by Hadrian, in around 130 CE, and the Christianization of the population and the cityscape in the fourth century. Cemeteries around the city, the rural hinterland, and the imperial roads that led to and from Aelia Capitolina are discussed as well. Due to the paucity of historical sources, the book is based on archaeological remains, suggesting a reconstruction of the city's development and a discussion of the population's identity.

Frederic Krueger zeigt anhand der Edition von fast 600 koptischen Ostraka, dass sich in Leipzig und anderen Sammlungen große Mengen von koptischen Ostraka befinden, die nicht, wie es meist der Fall ist oder pauschal angenommen wird, aus dem Theben des 7./8. Jh. stammen, sondern aus dem südlich angrenzenden Gebiet der Bezirkshauptstadt Hermonthis im 6. Jh. ? ein bislang archäologisch vernachlässigter und papyrologisch kaum greifbarer (Zeit-)Raum. Neben ?mikrohistorischen? Eindrücken vom alltäglichen Leben im bislang obskuren Kloster des Apa Hesekiel zeichnen sich ebenso ?makrohistorische? Dimensionen ab: Die Ostraka dokumentieren die letzten Jahrzehnte der frühesten Phase (vom 4. Jh. bis ca. 600) der Entwicklung des koinobitischen Mönchtums im Gebiet der südlichen Qena-Nilbiegung, die bislang nur in ihrer ?mittleren Phase? des 7./8. Jh. in Theben West detailreich greifbar war. Auch die Kirchengeschichte während der kritischen Zeit des 6. Jh. gewinnt papyrologische Konturen: Apa Andreas ? Abt, Priester, Bischof und ?Vater aller Mönche der Ökumene? (d.h. wohl: ein überregionaler Klösteradministrator) in der neuen monophysitischen Kirche ? ist der große Protagonist unter den Ostraka, die oft von seiner Hand geschrieben sind und wahrscheinlich in den Trümmern seines Archivs gefunden wurden

Welchen Zweck verfolgen wir mit ästhetischen Urteilen, wie z.B. ?Das ist schön?? Drücken wir damit nur unsere Begeisterung aus oder schreiben wir Gegenständen objektive, von uns unabhängige Eigenschaften zu? Können ästhetische Urteile wahr oder falsch sein, und falls ja, gilt der jeweilige Wahrheitswert dann allgemeingültig oder muss er in gewisser Hinsicht relativiert werden? Das Buch ist der Aufgabe gewidmet, Fragen dieser Art zu beantworten. Sprachphilosophische Fragen in Bezug auf ästhetische Urteile lassen sich allerdings nur dann präzise behandeln, wenn man sie um metaphysische Analysen ästhetischer Eigenschaften ergänzt. Es wird daher eine kombinierte Theorie ästhetischer Urteile und Eigenschaften motiviert, im Detail ausgearbeitet und gegen Angriffe verteidigt. Die Theorie verbindet Elemente einer Doppelsprechakttheorie ? nach der wir mit ästhetischen Aussagen simultan beschreibende und expressive Akte ausführen ? mit einer reaktions-dispositionalen Charakterisierung ästhetischer Eigenschaften.0.

Missverständnisse, Eingriffe und Druckfehler prägen die Rezeption eines Werkes, das im Laufe der Jahre zwar Liebhaber*innen, aber nie ein Massenpublikum gewinnen konnte und mittlerweile dem Vergessen anheimfällt. Zum einen zeigt die Studie auf, dass Klassifizierungen als Nonsens-, Kinder- oder Trinkerliterat dem Westberliner Malerpoeten Günter Bruno Fuchs nicht gerecht werden. Anhand exemplarischer Interpretationen wird die Komplexität der vermeintlich einfachen Texte aufgezeigt. Fuchs verfasst keinen Unsinn, er schreibt vielmehr gegen blinde Staatsgewalt, gegen alles Militärische, Spießige, Bornierte an. Zum anderen bietet die Arbeit ein nahezu vollständiges Verzeichnis von Medien (Text, Bild, Ton), die mit seinem Namen in Verbindung stehen. Die Auswertung dieser umfangreichen Materialsammlung offenbart eine Vielzahl an Irrtümern und Verfälschungen. Diese "Fehlergeschichten" machen die vorliegende Monographie zu einer durchaus unterhaltsamen Lektüre

Digitizing Enlightenment explores how a set of interrelated digital projects are transforming our vision of the Enlightenment. The featured projects are some of the best-known, most well-funded and longest established research initiatives in the emerging area of 'digital humanities', a field that has, particularly since 2010, been attracting a rising tide of interest from profesisonal academics, the media, funding councils and the general public worldwide. Advocates and practitioners of the digital humanities argue that computational methods can fundamentally transform our ability to answer some of the 'big questions' that drive humanities research, allowing us to see patterns and relationships shat were hitherto hard to discern, and to pinpoint, visualize and analyze relevant data in efficient and powerful new ways. In the book's opening part, leading scholars outline their own projects' institutional and intellectual histories, the techniques and methodologies they specifically developed, the sometimes-painful lessons learned in the process, future trajectories for their research, and how their findings are revising previoius understandings. A second part features chapters from early career scholars working at the intersection of digital methods and Englightenment studies, an intellectual space largely forged by the projects featured in Part 1. Highlighting current and future research methods and directions for digital eighteenth-century studies, the book offers a monument to the current state of digital work, an overview of current findings and a vision statement for future research.--page [v].

In The Economics of Friendship, Tazuko Angela van Berkel offers an account of the notion of reciprocity in 5th- and 4th-century Greek incepting social theory. The preoccupation with the norms of philia and charis, conspicuous in sources from the Classical Period, is a symptom of changes in the shape of ancient economic activities: the ubiquitous norm that one should reciprocate benefit with benefit becomes a source of conceptual confusion in the Classical Period, where other forms of exchange become conceptually available. This confusion and tension between different models of mutuality, is productive: it is the impetus for folk theory in comedy, tragedy and oratory, as well as philosophical reflection (Xenophon, Plato, Aristotle) on what it is that binds people together.

The emergence of a theatrical science of man in France, 1660-1740 highlights a radical departure from discussions of dramatic literature and its undergirding rules to a new, relational discourse on the emotional power of theater. Through a diverse cast of religious theaterphobes, government officials, playwrights, art theorists and proto-philosophes, Connors shows the concerted effort in early Enlightenment France to use texts about theater to establish broader theories on emotion, on the enduring psychological and social ramifications of affective moments, and more generally, on human interaction, motivation, and social behavior. This fundamentally anthropological assessment of theater emerged in the works of anti-theatrical religious writers, who argued that emotional response was theater's raison d'etre and that it was an efficient venue to learn more about the depravity of human nature. A new generation of pro-theatrical writers shared the anti-theatricalists' intense focus on the emotions of theater, but unlike religious theaterphobes, they did not view emotion as a conduit of sin or as a dangerous, uncontrollable process; but rather, as cognitive-affective moments of feeling and learning. Connors' study explores this reassessment of the theatrical experience which empowered writers to use plays, critiques, and other cultural materials about the stage to establish a theatrical science of man-an early Enlightenment project with aims to study and 'improve' the emotional, social, and political 'health' of eighteenth-century France.

In a speech delivered in 1794, roughly one year after the execution of Louis XVI, Robespierre boldly declared Terror to be an 'emanation of virtue'. In adapting the concept of virtue to Republican ends, Robespierre was drawing on traditions associated with ancient Greece and Rome. But Republican tradition formed only one of many strands in debates concerning virtue in France and elsewhere in Europe, from 1680 to the Revolution. This collection focuses on moral-philosophical and classical-republican uses of 'virtue' in this period - one that is often associated with a 'crisis of the European mind'. It also considers in what ways debates concerning virtue involved gendered perspectives. The texts discussed are drawn from a range of genres, from plays and novels to treatises, memoirs, and libertine literature. They include texts by authors such as Diderot, Laclos, and Madame de Stael, plus other, lesser-known texts that broaden the volume's perspective. Collectively, the contributors to the volume highlight the central importance of virtue for an understanding of an era in which, as Daniel Brewer argues in the closing chapter, 'the political could not be thought outside its moral dimension, and morality could not be separated from inevitable political consequences'.

Fancy in the eighteenth century was part of a rich semantic network, connecting wit, whimsicality, erotic desire, spontaneity, deviation from norms and triviality. It was also a contentious term, signifying excess, oddness and irrationality, liable to offend taste, reason and morals. This collection of essays foregrounds fancy - and its close synonym, caprice - as a distinct strand of the imagination in the period. As a prevalent, coherent and enduring concept in aesthetics and visual culture, it deserves a more prominent place in scholarly understanding than it has hitherto occupied. Fancy is here understood as a type of creative output that deviated from rules and relished artistic freedom. It was also a mode of audience response, entailing a high degree of imaginative engagement with playful, quirky artworks, generating pleasure, desire or anxiety. Emphasizing commonalities between visual productions in different media from diverse locations, the authors interrogate and celebrate the expressive freedom of fancy in European visual culture. Topics include: the seductive fictions of the fancy picture, Fragonard and galanterie, fancy in drawing manuals, pattern books and popular prints, fans and fancy goods, chinoiserie, excess and virtuality in garden design, Canaletto's British 'capricci', urban design in Madrid, and Goya's 'Caprichos'.

Genre in Archaic and Classical Greek Poetry foregrounds innovative approaches to the question of genre, what it means, and how to think about it for ancient Greek poetry and performance. Embracing multiple definitions of genre and lyric, the volume pushes beyond current dominant trends within the field of Classics to engage with a variety of other disciplines, theories, and models. Eleven papers by leading scholars of ancient Greek culture cover a wide range of media, from Sappho's songs to elegiac inscriptions to classical tragedy. Collectively, they develop a more holistic understanding of the concept of lyric genre, its relevance to the study of ancient texts, and its relation to subsequent ideas about lyric.
