The volumes Cultures of Eschatology explore the many ways apocalyptic thought and visions of the end intersected with the development of pre-modern religio-political communities, with social changes and with the emergence of new intellectual and literary traditions. The two volumes present a wide variety of case studies from the early Christian communities of Antiquity, through the times of the Islamic invasion and the Crusades and up to modern receptions, from the Latin West to the Byzantine Empire, from South Yemen to the Hidden Lands of Tibetan Buddhism. Examining apocalypticism, messianism and eschatology in medieval Christian, Islamic, Hindu and Buddhist communities, the contributions paint a multi-faceted picture of End-Time scenarios and provide their readers with a broad array of source material from different historical contexts. The first volume, Empires and Scriptural Authorities, examines the formation of literary and visual apocalyptic traditions, and the role they played as vehicles for defining a community's religious and political enemies. The second volume, Time, Death and Afterlife, focuses on key topics of eschatology: death, judgment, afterlife and the perception of time and its end. It also analyses modern readings and interpretations of eschatological concepts. 410 0$aCultural History of Apocalyptic Thought / Kulturgeschichte der Apokalypse 606 $aHISTORY / General$2bisacsh 608 $aCross-cultural studies.$2fast 610 $aMedieval history 610 $aapocalypticism 610 $amessianism 610 $aeschatology 610 $aEnd-Time scenarios 615 7$aHISTORY / General. 700 $aWieser$b Veronika$4edt$01371804 702 $aEltschinger$b Vincent$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aHeiss$b Johann$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aWieser$b Veronika$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 712 02$aFWF$4fnd$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/fnd 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996354143503316 996 $aCultures of Eschatology$93401441 997 $aUNISA
