To Eat or Not to Eat: Studies on the Biblical Dietary Prohibitions

To Eat or Not to Eat: Studies on the Biblical Dietary Prohibitions 

Peter Altmann, Anna Angelini  

Anna Angelini and Peter Altmann address pivotal issues on the biblical dietary prohibitions and their significance as practices and texts through philological, zooarchaeological, iconographic, and comparative ancient Near Eastern and Greco-Roman lenses. They explore theoretical frameworks adopted in modern interpretation, possible origins in relation to ancient Israelite religion and society, and location in relation to Priestly terminology and Deuteronomic tradition. The authors expand the arc of investigation to the Second Temple reception of the prohibitions in both the Dead Sea Scrolls and Greco-Roman discourses from the first centuries CE. With their foundational studies, they provide an approach to the dietary prohibitions, opening the way for reconstructing their path of development into their present-day contexts.

Das Fundament des Pergamonaltars und die Aufnahme seiner Fassadenfragmente

Das Fundament des Pergamonaltars und die Aufnahme seiner Fassadenfragmente

Manfred Klinkott [Author]

Die Abhandlung zum Fundament des Pergamonaltars und der Bauteile seiner Fassaden ergab sich aus einer Nachprüfung der bisherigen Datierung des Gebäudes anhand der Keramik in den Kammern der Rostkonstruktion durch W. Radt und G. de Luca. Dadurch war die Möglichkeit gegeben, das gesamte Fundament mit einer steingerechten Bauaufnahme zu erfassen. Das Ergebnis dieser Bauaufnahme führte zu einem Vergleich mit allen vorliegenden Rekonstruktionsversuchen, die sich voneinander unterschieden und sich nicht der Fundamentgröße anpassen ließen. So kam es zur nächsten Herausforderung, dem Überprüfen der Fassaden in ihren Seitenlängen, wozu jedoch jedes noch vorhandene Bauteil nachgemessen werden musste. Dabei galt es auch herauszufinden, welche Fragmente von der Bauhütte exakt oder nachlässig bearbeitet wurden. Aber um das beurteilen zu können, musste erst die richtige Fußmaßgröße aus der Menge der gesammelten Daten gefunden werden, um schließlich die Breitenmaße der Fassaden zu errechnen, die sich nur mit dem richtigen Ergebnis dem Fundament aufsetzen lassen. Mit diesem ›Schlüsselwert‹ waren dann auch die bisher in Vorschlag gebrachten Höhen des Gebäudes mit ihren Untergliederungen zu kontrollieren. Dass sich der Aufbau im unteren Bereich nach den Stufen der großen Freitreppe richten musste, war als selbstverständlich ohne Zweifel anzunehmen. Dann aber zeigte es sich, dass am Kolonnadengeschoss das Gliederungsprinzip durchbrochen wurde, um perspektivische Verkürzungen optisch auszugleichen. Mit dieser Abweichung aus dem zunächst festgelegten Stufenrhythmus unterscheidet
sich der pergamenische Architekt von einer bis in das kleinste Detail durchdachten Entwurfsdisziplin, um dem Zwang einer völlig in Regeln eingebundenen Architektur zu entgehen.

The Name and Gender: The Satirical Drama and the ‘Fourth Drama’ in Greek Theatre

The Name and Gender: The Satirical Drama and the ‘Fourth Drama’ in Greek Theatre 

Laura Carrara - Università di Pisa, Italia

Series | Lexis Supplements

This book examines the structure of the dramatic tetralogy as performed at the Great Dionysia (the major festival of Greek theatre), focusing on its final slot. According to the standard reconstruction, this position was always occupied by a satyric play, a lighter and shorter pièce obligatorily featuring a chorus of satyrs (and their old ribald father Silenus), whose function was, among other things, to provide emotional relief from the three preceding tragedies. If this was the case, exactly one fourth of each tragedian’s output would have consisted of satyr plays. The book takes a fresh and extensive look at the evidence supporting this view, questioning whether the so-called ‘tetralogical rule’ of modern scholarship was really perceived as such by ancient Greek playwrights and thus invariably followed by them. To this effect, the First Part of the book (“The Name”) systematically reviews the various possible Greek denominations for ‘satyric drama’, starting from the somewhat puzzling observation that there was no single dedicated word for it, at least none comparable to ‘tragedy’ or ‘comedy’. The review confirms that the most widespread way of referring to a satyr play was by appending the adjective σατυρικός/-ή to its title. In ancient quotation practice, however, these additions were easily liable to omission. Thus, it stands to reason that, in the course of the transmission process, originally satyric titles and lines circulating without further definition might have become mingled with, or mistaken for, tragic ones. The Second Part of the book (“The Genre”) takes its cue from this phenomenon, but it challenges the common view that all missing satyr plays of Classical theatre – that is, the ones expected on account of the 1:4 proportion but not traced until now – are still lurking incognito among the tragic remnants. Instead, it suggests that some of them were never written, since ancient playwrights could turn to an alternative format to fill the last slot of the tetralogy: the ‘satyr-less’ fourth-place play. The only certainly known instance of this, Euripides’s Alcestis, the last play in the tetralogy of 438 BC, has been variously explained away as an exception to the ‘tetralogical rule’. Through a re-reading of the relevant ancient sources and a reassessment of the corpora of Sophocles and Euripides, the book aims to show that the ‘satyr-less’ option was, on the contrary, potentially available to all playwrights entering the Dionysian competition and in fact occasionally, if not regularly, employed. The conclusion drafts a provisional identikit of this semi-forgotten literary typology.

Metri lirici nella poesia greca d’età imperiale: tra riuso e innovazione

Metri lirici nella poesia greca d’età imperiale: tra riuso e innovazione

Palermo, Gabriele

Il variegato panorama dei metri lirici nella poesia greca ha da sempre incontrato il vivo interesse degli studiosi, per quanto concerne la produzione di epoca arcaica e classica. Molto meno studiata è l’evoluzione di queste forme metriche dall’ellenismo alla tarda antichità, tra progressive semplificazioni, adattamenti a nuovi contesti e creazioni originali. Questo studio intende contribuire a riempire una parte di questo vuoto, analizzando nel dettaglio, non senza uno sguardo d’insieme, i testi in metri lirici (o comunque di origine lirica più o meno diretta) risalenti ai secoli I-V d.C.
