"Soldner und Berufssoldaten wurden bislang fast ausschliesslich aus militarhistorischer Sicht und aus der Perspektive der griechischen Polis thematisiert. Demgegenuber liegt den hier versammelten Beitragen ein auf breiter Quellenbasis stehender komparativer, rechts- sowie sozial- und kulturhistorischer Ansatz zugrunde. Die Soldaten selbst geraten als Personen und Akteure in ihrem jeweiligen politischen und sozialen Umfeld in den Blick. Gerade in den letzten Jahren wurden einige neue Inschriften und Papyri publiziert, die nun als korrektives Gegengewicht zur literarischen Uberlieferung herangezogen werden konnen, um die bis heute prasenten Stereotype infrage zu stellen. Die Autorinnen und Autoren entwickeln neue Perspektiven auf der Grundlage von drei grossen Themenkomplexen, die sich der Frage nach der Dichotomie zwischen Burgersoldat und Soldner sowie verschiedenen Aspekten widmen, die Soldner in ihrer Eigenschaft als Einwohner und Mitburger sowie als soziale Individuen und Gemeinschaften betreffen."

Some manuscripts have been produced for the personal use of their scribe only; whereas a number of them are valued as autographs, most have been ephemeral and were discarded. Personal manuscripts were not written for a patron, commissioner, or client. They are personal copies, anthologies, florilegia, personal notes, excerpts, drafts and notebooks, as well as family books, accountancy notebooks and many others; these forms often being mixed with one another. This volume introduces a number of such manuscripts in a comparative perspective, from Japan to Europe through the Middle East, with a focus on the Near and Middle East. The main concern is the possibility of identifying typical features of such manuscripts in terms of materials, visual organization and content. In attempting this, both the conditions of production and traces of the manuscripts’ use are taken into consideration, with particular attention to their material aspects.
