Kommentar/Beschreibung

While the focus of New Testament research in the last decade has been on the Pauline corpus and its relationship to Judaism, we want to focus on the primary texts of Hellenistic provenance, which have hardly been explored so far. The aim of this conference is to analyse the terminologies of law (e.g. νόμος, ἐντολή, δόγμα, θεσμός, ὁμολογία) in Judaism, early Christianity and Greco-Roman antiquity from an interdisciplinary perspective, to examine the underlying concepts and to relate them to practices. Bringing together expertise in classics, ancient history, archaeology, and biblical studies, the conference will analyse the conceptions of law to which the terms refer, and the ways in which translation between cultures had a productive effect on these conceptions. We also intend to explore the multi-layered interplay between historical developments, their textual representation and the religious practices taking place in different spaces, adopting a spatial-theoretical perspective that understands sacred spaces as the centre of social and religious life. Further, we will investigate the individual appropriation and negotiation of religious practices of law in public space.

Das Oberseminar findet in der Tagungsstätte Leucorea in Wittenberg als Blockveranstaltung in Kooperation mit der Universität Zürich (Prof. Krauter) statt. Am Sonntag ist auch die gemeinsame Besichtigung der Wittenberger Reformationsgedenkstätten und des Naumburger Doms geplant.
