| Zusammenfassung: | Objects made real: the art of description -- Citizens of fallen cities: ruins, diaspora, and the material unconscious -- Histories unwritten in stone: the frustrations of memorialization -- Tertullian of Carthage and the materiality of power (with Carly Daniel-Hughes) -- The perils of translation: martyrs' last words and the cultural materiality of speech -- Penetration and its discontents: agency, touch, and objects of desire -- Darkening the discipline: fantasies of efficacy and the art of redescription. "Judaism and Christianity as condensed illustrations of how people across time struggle with the materiality of life and death. Speaking across many fields, including classics, history, anthropology, literary, gender, and queer studies, the book journeys through the ancient Mediterranean world by way of the myriad physical artifacts that punctuate the transnational history of early Christianity. By bringing a psychoanalytically inflected approach to bear upon her materialist studies of religious history, Kotrosits makes a contribution not only to our understanding of Judaism and early Christianity, but also our sense of how different disciplines construe historical knowledge, and how we as people and thinkers understand our own relation to our material and affective past"-- |
