Texts offer opportunities to express one's own religious experience and shape one's own religious personality within the boundaries of what is acceptable. Inscriptions in public or at least easily accessible spaces might substantially differ in there range of expressions and topics from letters within a sectarian religious group (which, at the same time, might put enormous pressure on conformity among its members, regarded as deviant by a majority of contemporaries). Furthermore, texts might offer and advocate new practices in reading, meditating, remembering or repeating these very texts. Such practices might contribute to the development of religious individuality, experienced or expressed in factual isolation, responsibility, competition, and finally in philosophical or theological reflections about "personhood" or "self". The volume develops its topic in three sections, addressing personhood, representative and charismatic individuality, the interaction of individual and groups and practices of reading and writing. It explores Jewish, Christian, Greek and Latin texts.Religionsgeschichtliche Versuche und VorarbeitenSelfReligious aspectsSelfReligious aspectsHistory of doctrinesElectronic books.SelfReligious aspects.SelfReligious aspectsHistory of doctrines.200.9Rüpke Jörg407918Spickermann Wolfgang292562MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910462222603321Reflections on religious individuality2463099UNINA
