In this same society, the routine sexual exploitation of poor and enslaved women was abetted by public institutions. Four centuries later, a Roman emperor commanded the mutilation of men caught in same-sex affairs, even as he affirmed the moral dignity of women without any civic claim to honor. The gradual transformation of the Roman world from polytheistic to Christian marks one of the most sweeping ideological changes of premodern history. At the center of it all was sex. Exploring sources in literature, philosophy, and art, Kyle Harper examines the rise of Christianity as a turning point in the history of sexuality and helps us see how the roots of modern sexuality are grounded in an ancient religious revolution. While Roman sexual culture was frankly and freely erotic, it was not completely unmoored from constraint. Offending against sexual morality was cause for shame, experienced through social condemnation. The rise of Christianity fundamentally changed the ethics of sexual behavior. In matters of morality, divine judgment transcended that of mere mortals, and shame-a social concept-gave way to the theological notion of sin. This transformed understanding led to Christianity's explicit prohibitions of homosexuality, extramarital love, and prostitution. Most profound, however, was the emergence of the idea of free will in Christian dogma, which made all human action, including sexual behavior, accountable to the spiritual, not the physical, world. 410 0$aRevealing Antiquity 606 $aSex$xHistory$yTo 1500 606 $aSexual ethics$xHistory$yTo 1500 606 $aSex$xReligious aspects$xChristianity 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aSex$xHistory 615 0$aSexual ethics$xHistory 615 0$aSex$xReligious aspects$xChristianity. 676 $a306.7 700 $aHarper$b Kyle$f1979-$0765172 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910462852103321 996 $aFrom shame to sin$92353891 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02487nam 2200541 450 001 9910809375303321 005 20210703000023.0 010 $a90-04-42377-X 024 7 $a10.1163/9789004423770 035 $a(CKB)4920000000126974 035 $a(nllekb)BRILL9789004423770 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC6038800 035 $a(EXLCZ)994920000000126974 100 $a20200326d2020 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurun#---uuuua 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cn$2rdamedia 183 $anc$2rdacarrier 200 10$aEpistolae Plenae $ethe correspondence of the bishops of Hispania with the bishops of Rome : third through seventh centuries /$fby Alberto Ferreiro 210 1$aLeiden, The Netherlands ;$aBoston :$cBrill,$d[2020] 210 4$dİ2020 215 $a1 online resource 225 1 $aThe medieval and early modern Iberian world ;$vVolume 74 311 1 $a90-04-41776-1 (OCoLC)1127659874 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 330 $a"This monograph offers a full inventory and analysis of all of the extant correspondence between the bishops of Hispania and Rome from the third to the seventh century. No such study has been executed in any language. The study intends to enlighten the reader on how the bishops of Hispania and the Roman pontiffs interacted with each other. Of interest is the development of the Petrine Primacy and how it was applied in many situations where Rome was asked to intervene in Hispania, dealing with issues including the liturgy, creeds, heresy, sacraments, episcopal authority, ecclesiology, papal authority and more". 410 0$aMedieval and early modern Iberian world ;$vVolume 74. 606 $aChurch history$yPrimitive and early church, ca. 30-600$vSources 606 $aPopes$vCorrespondence 606 $aTheology, Doctrinal$xHistory$yEarly church, ca. 30-600$vSources 606 $aPetrine office$xHistory$vSources 606 $aPapacy and Christian union$xHistory$vSources 607 $aAfrica, North$xChurch history$vSources 615 0$aChurch history 615 0$aPopes 615 0$aTheology, Doctrinal$xHistory 615 0$aPetrine office$xHistory 615 0$aPapacy and Christian union$xHistory 676 $a274.602 700 $aFerreiro$b Alberto$0778099 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910809375303321 996 $aEpistolae Plenae$93930106 997 $aUNINA
