Sommario/riassunto

Die vorliegende Arbeit verzeichnet die gestempelten mortaria aus Vindonissa und untersucht, aus welchen Töpfereien Legionäre wie Zivilisten ihre Reibschüsseln bezogen. Gegenwärtig liegen 121 beschriftete mortaria vor. Mehrheitlich wurden sie im Schutthügel und innerhalb des Legionslagers gefunden; aus den canabae legionis und aus Gräbern liegen nur wenige vor. Diese Unterschiede in der Fundmenge sprechen entweder für unterschiedliche Essgewohnheiten oder verweisen auf abweichende Vorlieben beim Erwerb gestempelter Markenware. Aus Italien (u. a. Campanien) stammen die frühesten Importe, danach folgen Produktionsorte in Gallien (Aoste und Coulanges-Mortillon). Zu einem späteren Zeitpunkt übernehmen die näher gelegenen obergermanischen Töpfereien von Baden, Bern-Enge und Oberwinterthur die Versorgung des Marktes. Der Militärtöpfer l. calvius aus der centuria des iustus und seine beiden wohl zivilen Kollegen pola merca(tor) und t. c. c. haben ihre Reibschüsseln in Vindonissa – also «vor Ort» – hergestellt.

Sommario/riassunto

"Dignity is often denounced as hopelessly amorphous or incurably theological: as feel-good philosophical window-dressing, or as the name given to whatever principles give you the answer that you think is right. This is wrong, says Charles Foster: dignity is not only an essential principle in bioethics and law; it is really the only principle. In this ambitious, paradigm-shattering but highly readable book, he argues that dignity is the only sustainable Theory of Everything in bioethics. For most problems in contemporary bioethics, existing principles such as autonomy, beneficence, non-maleficence, justice and professional probity can do a reasonably workmanlike job if they are all allowed to



contribute appropriately. But these are second order principles, each of which traces its origins back to dignity. And when one gets to the frontiers of bioethics (such as human enhancement), dignity is the only conceivable language with which to describe and analyse the strange conceptual creatures found there. Drawing on clinical, anthropological, philosophical and legal insights, Foster provides a new lexicon and grammar of that language which is essential reading for anyone wanting to travel in the outlandish territories of bioethics, and strongly recommended for anyone wanting to travel comfortably anywhere in bioethics or medical law."--Bloomsbury Publishing.
