Written Media in Antiquity
This chapter examines literature from the perspective of written media in the ancient Roman world: material, format, and circulation. More specifically, it proposes a taxonomy of writing based on a consideration of written media that does not correspond precisely to the modern distinction between literary and documentary texts. The discussion is predicated on two oppositions: the unique versus the reproduced and the enduring versus the disposable…

The Ethics of World History
World historians have developed an impressive body of criticism regarding the traditional Western civilization curriculum. They have disregarded the ethical pretensions of Western civilization, however, as well as the question of the ethics of world history itself. The relationship between ethics, politics, and education has been the subject of strenuous discussion and posturing in the United States since the rise of the "neoconservative" movemen…
The American Ephebe
Caveats to a “Righted Order” of the Gospel of the Savior
Newly discovered ancient manuscripts of previously unknown texts found in a fragmentary, disordered, and incomplete state present challenges to modern scholars seeking to restore, conserve, and study them. The first order of business is the ordering of the disordered pages, if possible. Restoring page sequence is, in effect, reconstructing their original order in the ancient codex, from which sheets and leaves were detached, by accident or by des…

Introduction Democracies Ancient and Modern
Dēmokratia
This book is the result of a long and fruitful conversation among practitioners of two very different fields: ancient history and political theory. The topic of the conversation is classical Greek democracy and its contemporary relevance. The nineteen contributors remain diverse in their political commitments and in their analytic approaches, but all have engaged deeply with Greek texts, with normative and historical concerns, and with each other…

Phratry Shrines of Attica and Athens
Nag Hammadi, Gnosticism, and Early Christianity
The Phratry from Paiania
There is little evidence to support any estimate of the sizes and number of the phratries in Classical Attica. According to the author of the Aristotelian Athenaion Politeia , there were four tribes, 12 phratries and 360 gene, corresponding respectively to the seasons, months and days of the year. Most older discussions of the tribal organization of Attica were based on this passage. More recently, however, scholars have come to agree that this i…
The Thymaitian Phratry
The Temple and Cult of Apollo Patroos in Athens
Apollo Patroos, the ancestral Apollo, was unique in the Classical period to Athens, where the god was worshipped by kinship groups and by the state. Synthesis of the substantial archaeological, artistic, epigraphical and literary documentation for the cult permits reconstruction of its development and place in Athenian history. An examination of the remains of the Temple of Apollo Patroos in the Athenian Agora and of the objects (inscriptions, st…
Kingdom Sayings and Parables of Jesus in the Apocryphon of James
In a recent article Helmut Koester argues against the current practice of distinguishing between canonical Gospels, on the one hand, and apocryphal gospels, on the other, and treating the apocryphal gospels as ‘step children’ of New Testament research. Koester maintains that there are a number of the ‘apocryphal’ gospels which ‘belong to a very early stage in the development of gospel literature — a stage that is comparable to the sources which w…
