Contributors demonstrate how dress developed as a topos within Judean and Christian rhetoric, symbolism, and performance, and show how religious meanings were entangled with other social logics, revealing the many layers of meaning attached to ancient dress, as well as the extent to which dress was implicated in numerous domains of religious life.Clothing and dressReligious aspectsJudaismRabbinical literatureHistory and criticismClothing and dressReligious aspectsChristianityClothing and dressReligious aspectsJudaism.Rabbinical literatureHistory and criticism.Clothing and dressReligious aspectsChristianity.248.46Upson-Saia Kristi1974-Daniel-Hughes Carly1974-Batten Alicia J.Callon CallieMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910786692803321Dressing Judeans and Christians in antiquity3806543UNINA
