Description
Résumé:Heidnische Priester in Attika vom dritten bis zum fünften Jahrhundert nach ChristusAthenian civic priests from classical times to late antiquity: some considerations; Indices.
Introduction; Priests, priesthoods, cult personnel -- traditional and new approaches; Tradition -- Repräsentation -- Distinktion. Eine Fallstudie zu Reliefweihungen von Priestern im späthellenistischen und römischen Attika; The social construction of priests and priestesses in Athenian honorific decrees from the fourth century BC to the Augustan period; Prêtres et prêtresses d'Athènes et de Délos à travers les décrets honorifiques athéniens (167-88 a. C.); The tenure, appointment and eponymy of priesthoods and their (debatable) ideological and political implications.
Images and inscriptions indicate how priests and cult personnel saw themselves and were viewed by others. Cultural records like dedications, honorific statues and decrees are central to understanding how the roles of priests and priestesses were constructed in social and political terms in post-classical Athens. The approaches in this study are both historical and archaeological, and elucidate the religious functions that the cult personnel fulfilled for the city, and their perception, by themselves and by others, as citizens of the polis
