Antiochia am Orontes gehörte neben Rom, Konstantinopel und Alexandria zu den größten Metropolen der hellenistisch-römischen Welt. Unser Bild dieser Stadt wird im wesentlichen von den Berichten antiker Autoren geprägt. Gemessen an der überaus reichen schriftlichen Überlieferung ist die spätantike Stadt archäologisch dagegen weitgehend gestaltlos geblieben. Dennoch beginnt sich abzuzeichnen, dass das spätantike Antiochia nicht die heile Mustersiedlung gewesen ist, als die sie viele Schriftsteller zeichnen, sondern eine Metropole, die im Gefolge von militärischen Zerstörungen und Erdbeben, aber auch von demographischem und wirtschaftlichem Wandel seit dem 4. Jh. n.Chr. einschneidende Stadtumbauten erlebte. Nach einer Katastrophenserie in justinianischer Zeit, die das alte Antiochia weitgehend auslöschte, hatte sich die Stadt letztmalig den Problemen eines vollständigen Wiederaufbaus zu stellen. Our image of Antioch on the Orontes, a metropolis of the Roman world, is largely shaped by the reports of ancient authors. By comparison, the archeological image of the city of late antiquity has remained essentially invisible. It has become apparent over time that the city underwent radical reconstruction beginning from the 4th century as the result of pillage and natural disasters as well as demographic and economic change.

From constructing new buildings to describing rival-controlled areas as morally and physically dangerous, leaders in late antiquity fundamentally shaped their physical environment and thus the events that unfolded within it. Controlling Contested Places maps the city of Antioch (Antakya, Turkey) through the topographically sensitive vocabulary of cultural geography, demonstrating the critical role played by physical and rhetorical spatial contests during the tumultuous fourth century. Paying close attention to the manipulation of physical places, Christine Shepardson exposes some of the powerful forces that structured the development of religious orthodoxy and orthopraxy in the late Roman Empire.Theological claims and political support were not the only significant factors in determining which Christian communities gained authority around the Empire. Rather, Antioch's urban and rural places, far from being an inert backdrop against which events transpired, were ever-shifting sites of, and tools for, the negotiation of power, authority, and religious identity. This book traces the ways in which leaders like John Chrysostom, Theodoret, and Libanius encouraged their audiences to modify their daily behaviors and transform their interpretation of the world (and landscape) around them. Shepardson argues that examples from Antioch were echoed around the Mediterranean world, and similar types of physical and rhetorical manipulations continue to shape the politics of identity and perceptions of religious orthodoxy to this day.

Although it would appear in studies of late antique ecclesiastical authority and power that scholars have covered everything, an important aspect of the urban bishop has long been neglected: his role as demonologist and exorcist. When the emperor Constantine made Christianity the official religion of the realm, bishops and priests everywhere struggled  to "Christianize" the urban spaces still dominated by Greco-Roman monuments and festivals. During this period of upheaval, when congregants seemingly attended everything but their own "orthodox" church, many ecclesiastical leaders began simultaneously to promote aggressive and insidious depictions of the demonic. In City of Demons, Dayna S. Kalleres investigates this developing discourse and the church-sponsored rituals that went along with it, showing how shifting ecclesiastical demonologies and evolving practices of exorcism profoundly shaped Christian life in the fourth century.
