"In Gelübde im antiken Judentum und frühesten Christentum Daniel Schumann aims to trace the earliest discourses on vows, as they are recorded in ancient Jewish and early Christian sources from the time of the Second Temple. He also shows how Judaism and Christianity have participated in ancient forms of vow-making since late antiquity and how they also have developed these discourses further. By presenting these discourses on the basis of a broad range of sources, he reveals how in Jewish as well as in Christian perception, voices of esteem but also of reservation have been raised throughout the centuries. After all, vows are a cult-practical exercise in which well-being and disaster are in closer proximity than in most other acts of devotion"--

Nazirites appear in a number of sources relevant to Judaism of the late Second Temple period. This book surveys the pertinent evidence and assesses what it reveals regarding the role of the Nazirite within Judaism of the late Second Temple and early Christian era. The survey is arranged according to three primary sections: “Direct Evidence for Nazirites”; “Possible and Tangential Evidence for Nazirites”; and a final section, “Making Sense of the Evidence.” It concludes by arguing that the role of the Nazirite portrayed in sources was that of a religious devotee, and concomitant with biblical law, Nazirite devotion typically involved flexibility, personal freedom of expression, and adaptation to outside cultural norms. Those interested in the Nazirite vow as portrayed in the New Testament and other relevant sources will find this study useful, as will those interested in Bible translation and interpretation in late Second Temple and early rabbinic literature.

Dossier : Comment agit-on par la parole dans un cadre ritualisé ? Les pratiques des mondes anciens étudiées sont l'occasion de repenser notre monde contemporain. À travers des processus de ritualisation, de « solennisation » et de formalisation, ce volume étudie la manière dont des actes de langage particuliers ont acquis la capacité de lier des personnes dans des unions durables (le mariage, l’alliance, l’adoption ou le contrat) ; de transmettre la connaissance du passé avec certitude et fidélité (le témoignage juridique) ; ou de garantir des actions à venir dans une totale confiance (le gage, la promesse et le vœu). Varia : Histoire et anthropologie religieuse (sphères d'action et modes d'épiphanie divine, oracles et politique, les agalmata, le daimôn du stoïcisme impérial). Questions d'anthropologie (comparatisme Grèce/Chine : la raison pratique ; le geste de Phryné ; les vases à prédelle ; la « féminité » des arbres : Varron, Ovide).

Conal Condren offers a radical reappraisal of the character of moral and political theory in early modern England through an exploration of pervasive arguments about office. In this context he explores the significance of oath-taking and three of the major crises around oaths and offices in the seventeenth century. This fresh focus on office brings into serious question much of what has been taken for granted in the study of early modern political and moral theory concerning, for example, the interplay of ideologies, the emergence of a public sphere, of liberalism, reason of state, de facto theory, and perhaps even political theory and moral agency as we know it. Argument and Authority is a major new work from a senior scholar of early modern political thought, of interest to a wide range of historians, philosophers and literary scholars.
