Abstract

La rencontre organisée à Bordeaux au mois de mai 1997 sur les cultes polythéistes dans l’Adriatique romaine marque une étape importante dans la collaboration que l’Institut Ausonius a nouée depuis plusieurs années avec les organismes de recherche de plusieurs pays riverains du nord de l’Adriatique. Cette coopération trouve régulièrement une concrétisation dans la parution d’une chronique quinquennale publiée avec le concours de l’École Française de Rome et qui fait le bilan de la recherche sur l’Histoire Ancienne et l’archéologie de la zone adriatique à l’époque romaine. L’opportunité se présentait cependant de rassembler une bonne partie des partenaires de cette initiative.

Abstract

Traces the central role played by aristocratic patronage in the transformation of the city of Rome at the end of antiquity. It moves away from privileging the administrative and institutional developments related to the rise of papal authority as the paramount theme in the city's post-classical history. Instead the focus shifts to the networks of reciprocity between patrons and their dependents. Using material culture and social theory to challenge traditional readings of the textual sources, the volume undermines the teleological picture of ecclesiastical sources such as the Liber Pontificalis, and presents the lay, clerical, and ascetic populations of the city of Rome at the end of antiquity as interacting in a fluid environment of alliance-building and status negotiation. By focusing on the city whose aristocracy is the best documented of any ancient population, the volume makes an important contribution to understanding the role played by elites across the end of antiquity.

Abstract

This volume explores the nature of religious change in the Greek-speaking cities of the Roman Empire. Emphasis is put on those developments that apparently were not the direct result of Roman actions: the intensification of idiosyncratically Greek features in the religious life of the cities (Heller, Muñiz, Camia); the active role of a new kind of Hellenism in the design of imperial religious policies (Gordillo, Galimberti, Rosillo-López); or the locally different responses to central religious initiatives, and the influence of those local responses in other imperial contexts (Cortés, Melfi, Lozano, Rizakis). All the chapters try to suggest that religion in the Greek cities of the empire was both conservative and innovative, and that the ‘Roman factor’ helps to explain this apparent paradox.
