Our volume, however, with its unique intercultural character and its explicit focus on appropriation and contestation of religious expertise in the Imperial Era is substantially different. Unlike the rather narrow focus of earlier studies of civic priests, the papers presented here examine a wider range of religious professionals, their dynamic interaction with established religious authorities and institutions, and their contributions to religious innovation in the ancient Mediterranean world, from the late Hellenistic period through to Late Antiquity, from the City of Rome to mainland Greece, Asia Minor, Syria and Egypt, from Greek civic practice to ancient Judaism. A further advantage of our volume is the wide range of media of transmission taken into account. Our contributors look at both old and new materials, which derive not only from literary sources but also from papyri, inscriptions, and material culture. Above all, this volume assesses critically convenient terminological usage and offers a unique insight into a rich gamut of ancient Mediterranean religious specialists NO Open Access NO In English NO Includes bibliographical references (pages 420-443) and index NO "Almost all the chapters included in this volume were delivered in one form or other at an international conference entitled 'Beyond duty : interacting with religious professionals and appropriating tradition in the Imperial Era' held in Erfurt at the Augustinerkloster, 14-16 January 2015"--Acknowledgements NO Description based on online resource; title from PDF title page (viewed on 10/15/2020) NO BIBID=ED00003184; LK [E Book]https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&db=nlabk&AN=2944582 OL 30
