Im vorliegenden Buch wird das kulturelle Wissen des römischen Kalenders untersucht, wie es Ovid in den ‚Fasti‘ darstellt und selbst mitgestaltet. Die Studie geht von der These aus, dass das Gedicht sich in einem gemeinsamen Wissensdiskurs mit einer Reihe von poetischen wie auch historiographischen und antiquarischen Prosatexten befindet, was u. a. durch die zentrale, diesen Texten gemeinsame Gedankenfigur der Aitiologie oder Ursprungserklärung deutlich wird. Die Art und Weise dieses Zusammentreffens von Wissen und Literatur wird am Kernthema der ‚Fasti‘ dargestellt: der Geschichte der Kalenderkonstitution und der aitiologischen Erklärung der Gestalt, Ordnung und Namen des römischen Jahres. Die Studie stellt einen Beitrag zu einer literarischen Wissensgeschichte der römischen Literatur dar, ist also eine über historische Darstellungen der faktischen Ereignisse und Reformen des Kalenders hinausgehende Interpretation der poetischen Verarbeitung sozialer Zeitverhandlung in Rom.

Cultural records such as dedications, honorific statues and decrees are keys to understanding the manifold and diverse social roles and religious functions of priesthoods in the cities of Asia Minor and the Aegean islands from the classical period to late antiquity. These texts and images indicate how the priests and priestesses saw themselves and were viewed by others. The approaches in this volume are historical, religious, and archaeological, and they elucidate the religious functions that the cult personnel fulfilled for the city, and the perception of priests and priestesses as citizens of the polis. The volume focuses on developments from the Hellenistic period into Imperial times. Subjects include: gendered priesthoods and family traditions, the topography of honorary statues and the presentation of funerary monuments, federal and civic priesthoods as well as priests of private cult-foundations, benefactions and social pressure, and the religious, social and political functions of priests and priestesses within cities.
