Knowledge in the fields of medicine, history, philosophy, and poetry joined with rhetorical brilliance and a presentable manner became the outward appearance of the elite of the Eastern Roman Empire. This outward appearance guaranteed a high social status as well as political and economical power for the individual and major advantages for their hometowns in interpolis competition. Since paideia was related particularly to Classical Greek antiquity, it was, at the same time, fundamental to the new self-confidence of the Greek East. This book presents, for the first time, studies from a broad range of disciplines on various fields of life and on different media, in which this ideology became manifest. These contributions show that the Sophists and their texts were only the most prominent exponents of a system of thoughts and values structuring the life of the elite in general. 410 0$aMillennium-Studien ;$v2. 606 $aCivilization, Greco-Roman$vCongresses 606 $aSophists (Greek philosophy)$vCongresses 610 $aSecond Sophistic 610 $aRoman Empire 610 $aClassical age 610 $aeducation 610 $apaideia 610 $aknowledge 615 0$aCivilization, Greco-Roman 615 0$aSophists (Greek philosophy) 676 $a937 686 $a18.43$2bcl 700 $aBorg$b Barbara E$4edt 701 $aBorg$b Barbara$0281544 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996449447403316 996 $aPaideia$92485481 997 $aUNISA
