Zugleich schuf das Christentum Verbindungen, die sich unter anderem in gemeinsamen Erzählungen vom Königtum niederschlugen. Diese waren indes auch von weiteren Traditionen beeinflusst, griechisch-römischen, persischen, wie auch kaukasischen und anderen. Der Sammelband erörtert die Vorstellungen und Debatten über den guten christlichen Herrscher in verschiedenen Kontexten sowie Sprachen und beachtet dabei besonders diejenigen, die an der Peripherie stattfanden, etwa im Kaukasus oder in Nubien. Zum Vergleich werden auch nicht-christliche Konzepte herangezogen. Dadurch sollen Verflechtung und Verbundenheit der mediterranen Kulturen deutlich werden, aber auch die Konfliktlinien, die unter den Christen sowie zwischen ihnen und anderen Kulturen bestanden. Auf diese Weise integriert der Band allgemeine Geschichte und die Geschichte des christlichen Orients und versucht so eine Vielzahl von Spezialstudien für eine übergreifende Fragestellung fruchtbar zu machen. 330 $aThe late antique and early medieval Mediterranean was characterized by wide-ranging cultural and linguistic diversity. Yet, under the influence of Christianity, communities in the Mediterranean world were bound together by common concepts of good rulership, which were also shaped by Greco-Roman, Persian, Caucasian, and other traditions. This collection of essays examines ideas of good Christian rulership and the debates surrounding them in diverse cultures and linguistic communities. It grants special attention to communities on the periphery, such as the Caucasus and Nubia, and some essays examine non-Christian concepts of good rulership to offer a comparative perspective. As a whole, the studies in this volume reveal not only the entanglement and affinity of communities around the Mediterranean but also areas of conflict among Christians and between Christians and other cultural traditions. By gathering various specialized studies on the overarching question of good rulership, this volume highlights the possibilities of placing research on classical antiquity and early medieval Europe into conversation with the study of eastern Christianity. 410 0$aMillennium-Studien / Millennium Studies 606 $aRELIGION / Christianity / History$2bisacsh 610 $aChristianity. 610 $aCultural exchange. 610 $aLate antique world. 610 $aMonarchy. 615 7$aRELIGION / Christianity / History. 676 $a909/.09822 702 $aBooth$b Phil, $4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aBoytsov$b Mikhail A., $4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aBozoyan$b Azat, $4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aCamplani$b Alberto, $4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aConterno$b Maria, $4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aDorfmann-Lazarev$b Igor, $4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aDrews$b Wolfram, $4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aForness$b Philip Michael, $4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aForness$b Philip Michael, $4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aGreenwood$b Tim, $4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aHakobyan$b Aleksan, $4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aHartmann$b Florian, $4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aHasse-Ungeheuer$b Alexandra, $4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aHasse-Ungeheuer$b Alexandra, $4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aLeppin$b Hartmut, $4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aLeppin$b Hartmut, $4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aOcha?a$b Grzegorz, $4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aPreuß$b Kai, $4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aReinhold Jeck$b Udo, $4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aToral-Niehoff$b Isabel, $4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aWiesehöfer$b Josef, $4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aZiemann$b Daniel, $4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $a?ajtar$b Adam, $4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996433043603316 996 $aThe Good Christian Ruler in the First Millennium$92558934 997 $aUNISA
