Our volume, however, with its unique intercultural character and its explicit focus on appropriation and contestation of religious expertise in the Imperial Era is substantially different. Unlike the rather narrow focus of earlier studies of civic priests, the papers presented here examine a wider range of religious professionals, their dynamic interaction with established religious authorities and institutions, and their contributions to religious innovation in the ancient Mediterranean world, from the late Hellenistic period through to Late Antiquity, from the City of Rome to mainland Greece, Asia Minor, Syria and Egypt, from Greek civic practice to ancient Judaism. A further advantage of our volume is the wide range of media of transmission taken into account. Our contributors look at both old and new materials, which derive not only from literary sources but also from papyri, inscriptions, and material culture. Above all, this volume assesses critically convenient terminological usage and offers a unique insight into a rich gamut of ancient Mediterranean religious specialists.Religionsgeschichtliche Versuche und Vorarbeiten Ancient history: to c 500 CEbicsscReligion & beliefsbicsscHistory of religionbicsscRomeReligious life and customsReligious specialists.Roman empire.imperial era.religious innovation.Ancient history: to c 500 CEReligion & beliefsHistory of religion230BE 7404DE-24/20sredrvkGordon Richard Ledt127163Gordon Richard L.Petridou GeorgiaRüpke JörgEuropean Research Council (ERC)fndhttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/fndDE-B1597DE-B1597BOOK9910220014903321Beyond Priesthood3584441UNINA05497nam 2200685 450 991081999550332120200520144314.01-118-96662-71-118-96660-01-118-96661-9(CKB)2670000000583832(EBL)1882159(SSID)ssj0001432041(PQKBManifestationID)11825126(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001432041(PQKBWorkID)11387834(PQKB)11498418(MiAaPQ)EBC1882159(DLC) 2014036297(Au-PeEL)EBL1882159(CaPaEBR)ebr10993854(CaONFJC)MIL675239(OCoLC)890799241(PPN)195276515(EXLCZ)99267000000058383220141218h20152015 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrAnimal signaling and function an integrative approach /edited by Duncan J.

However, while much progress has been made on some fronts, we still lack a general theory about why the diversity of signaling structures exist. Our compilation will directly address this gap by focusing on an exciting new arena of sexual selection, namely using functional approaches to understand signaling. This approach is rooted in the idea that many signals are designed to transmit important funAnimal communicationAnimal communication.591.59Irschick Duncan J.Briffa MarkPodos Jeffrey1967-O'Toole AnthonyMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910819995503321Animal signaling and function3992378UNINA
