    Book Details:
  • Author : Anathea Portier-Young
  • Publisher : Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing
  • Release : 2014-01-09
  • ISBN : 080287083X
  • Pages : 487 pages

Download or read book Apocalypse Against Empire written by Anathea Portier-Young and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2014-01-09 with total page 487 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The year 167 B.C.E. marked the beginning of a period of intense persecution for the people of Judea, as Seleucid emperor Antiochus IV Epiphanes attempted -- forcibly and brutally -- to eradicate traditional Jewish religious practices. In Apocalypse against Empire Anathea Portier-Young reconstructs the historical events and key players in this traumatic episode in Jewish history and provides a sophisticated treatment of resistance in early Judaism. Building on a solid contextual foundation, Portier-Young argues that the first Jewish apocalypses emerged as a literature of resistance to Hellenistic imperial rule. In particular, Portier-Young contends, the book of Daniel, the Apocalypse of Weeks, and the Book of Dreams were written to supply an oppressed people with a potent antidote to the destructive propaganda of the empire -- renewing their faith in the God of the covenant and answering state terror with radical visions of hope.

Book Empire  Authority  and Autonomy in Achaemenid Anatolia

Download or read book Empire Authority and Autonomy in Achaemenid Anatolia written by Elspeth R. M. Dusinberre and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2013-04-29 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Achaemenid Persian Empire (550–330 BCE) was a vast and complex sociopolitical structure that encompassed much of modern-day Turkey, Syria, Jordan, Israel, Egypt, Iraq, Iran and Afghanistan and included two dozen distinct peoples who spoke different languages, worshipped different deities, lived in different environments and had widely differing social customs. This book offers a radical new approach to understanding the Achaemenid Persian Empire and imperialism more generally. Through a wide array of textual, visual and archaeological material, Elspeth R. M. Dusinberre shows how the rulers of the Empire constructed a system flexible enough to provide for the needs of different peoples within the confines of a single imperial authority and highlights the variability in response. This book examines the dynamic tensions between authority and autonomy across the Empire, providing a valuable new way of considering imperial structure and development.

Book The Representation and Perception of Roman Imperial Power

Download or read book The Representation and Perception of Roman Imperial Power written by Paul Erdkamp and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2019-05-28 with total page 581 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the days of the emperor Augustus (27 B.C.-A.D. 14) the emperor and his court had a quintessential position within the Roman Empire. It is therefore clear that when the Impact of the Roman Empire is analysed, the impact of the emperor and those surrounding him is a central issue. The study of the representation and perception of Roman imperial power is a multifaceted area of research, which greatly helps our understanding of Roman society. In its successive parts this volume focuses on 1. The representation and perception of Roman imperial power through particular media: literary texts, inscriptions, coins, monuments, ornaments, and insignia, but also nicknames and death-bed scenes. 2. The representation and perception of Roman imperial power in the city of Rome and the various provinces. 3. The representation of power by individual emperors.

Book Nation  Empire  Decline

    Book Details:
  • Author : Nancy Shumate
  • Publisher : A&C Black
  • Release : 2013-11-20
  • ISBN : 1849667489
  • Pages : 223 pages

Download or read book Nation Empire Decline written by Nancy Shumate and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2013-11-20 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The often overlapping discourses of nationalism and imperialism, along with related ideas of social decline, have been central in 19th- and 20th-century Anglo-European views of the world. This book offers four readings of Latin literary texts to show that the templates for these 'modern' discourses were forged in their essentials by the early Roman imperial period. Each chapter follows the relevant rhetorical thread in works of Horace, Tacitus or Juvenal, comparing their strategies with the defining structures of modern nationalist or colonialist discourses. General rhetorical principles can be discerned, remarkably persistent across time and circumstances. Classicists will find something new in an approach that systematically analyses the rhetorical strategies that underlie Roman prototypes of these discourses while demonstrating how closely later incarnations follow them.
