Long description:

"Die Autoren der hier gesammelten Aufsätze untersuchen das Thema Erinnerung und Gedächtnis in der Antike. Dabei reicht der Fokus von der hebräischen Bibel, dem antiken Judentum, der klassischen Antike und dem Neuen Testament bis zum frühen Christentum. Auf vielfältige Quellen zurückgreifend werden Fragen nach der sozialen und religiösen Funktion des Erinnerns erörtert. Die Zusammenstellung der Aufsätze macht deutlich, in wieweit Theorien zur Erinnerungsstrategie zum Verständnis alter Texte beitragen können. The volume brings together essays that explore the topic of memory and remembrance in the ancient world, taking into account the Hebrew Bible (Deuteronomy, 1 and 2 Kings), ancient Judaism (1 and 2 Maccabees, Psalms of Solomon, Dead Sea Scrolls), the classical world, the New Testament (Jesus, Synoptic Gospels and Acts, Gospel of John, Pauline letters) and Early Christianity (Petrine tradition). The essays, which focus on a wide range of sources from antiquity, open up new questions about the social and religious function of memory. As a collection, they demonstrate how much social memory theory can contribute to the understanding of the ways ancient texts were, on the one hand, shaped by conventions of memory and, on the other hand, participated in and contributed to evolving strategies for reading ""the past""."
