From Hellenism to Islam: Cultural and Linguistic Change in the Roman Near East by Hannah M. Cotton Jonathan Price , Robert G. Hoyland , David J. Wassertein
Requirements: .PDF reader, 2.5 MB
Overview: The 800 years between the 1st Roman conquests & the Islamic conquest saw a rich, constantly shifting blend of languages & writing systems, legal structures, religious practices & beliefs in the Near East. While different ethnic groups & cultural forms often clashed with each other, adaptation was as much characteristic of the region as conflict. This volume, emphasizing the inscriptions in many languages from the Near East, brings together informative studies by scholars in diverse fields. Together, they reveal how the different languages, peoples & cultures interacted, competed with, tried to ignore or were influenced by each other, & how their relationships evolved over time. It will be of great value to those interested in Greek, Roman & Jewish history & Near Eastern studies.
Genre: Non-Fiction > Faith, Beliefs & Philosophy
