If you have not already done so, please visit the book’s website to pay an amount that you feel is appropriate for your use of this book: http://philipharland.com/associations/?p=42. There are two main advantages to this new 2013 edition over its previous incarnations. First of all, I engage with more recent scholarship (from the past 10 years) on important points, particularly in parts one and two on the associations. In some cases, I have shortened the discussion here if I have more fully developed the ideas in my subsequent work on Dynamics of Identity in the World of the Early Christians (New York: Continuum, 2009). Secondly, and perhaps more importantly, I provide hyperlinks to inscriptions that are discussed in the text and that are now gathered together on the companion website to Associations in the Greco-Roman World: A Sourcebook (Waco: Baylor University Press, 2012) = AGRW: http://philipharland.com/greco-roman-associations/. Users can simply click on an inscription in the pdf and be brought to information about the inscription, including a description, the original texts (Greek or Latin), and, often, an English translation. I also continue to maintain an easy-to- read companion website for the present book accessible at the following address: http://philipharland.com/associations/?p=43. These arrangements may also assist instructors who wish to make use of both the sourcebook and this book (or parts of it) within courses on social or religious life in the ancient Mediterranean, My wife, Cheryl Williams, and myMy two sons, Justin and Nathaniel, have been an ongoing support throughout my work. I would like to thank the following people who have generously taken the time to offer suggestions and criticisms at various stages: John S. Kloppenborg, Roger Beck, Peter Richardson, Keir Hammer, Richard Ascough, Philip Sellew, Dave Graham, Harold Remus, Leif E. Vaage, and K.C. Hanson, as well as members of both the Canadian Society of Biblical Literature and the Society of Biblical Literature. Andreas Bendlin’s comments on chapter 6 for preparation of this new edition have been very helpful in clarifying our agreements and disagreements. Colleagues at both Concordia University and York University have supported my work in various ways. Grants from York University have aided my research, including the construction and management of the websites. I would like to thank Fortress Press for transferring the copyright to me for this second edition. i ILLUSTRATIONS AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS All photos by Harland (copyright 2013) unless otherwise acknowledged. 1.

  • Hadrian and the Greek East
    HADRIAN AND THE GREEK EAST: IMPERIAL POLICY AND COMMUNICATION DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of the Ohio State University By Demetrios Kritsotakis, B.A, M.A. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2008 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Fritz Graf, Adviser Professor Tom Hawkins ____________________________ Professor Anthony Kaldellis Adviser Greek and Latin Graduate Program Copyright by Demetrios Kritsotakis 2008 ABSTRACT The Roman Emperor Hadrian pursued a policy of unification of the vast Empire. After his accession, he abandoned the expansionist policy of his predecessor Trajan and focused on securing the frontiers of the empire and on maintaining its stability. Of the utmost importance was the further integration and participation in his program of the peoples of the Greek East, especially of the Greek mainland and Asia Minor. Hadrian now invited them to become active members of the empire. By his lengthy travels and benefactions to the people of the region and by the creation of the Panhellenion, Hadrian attempted to create a second center of the Empire. Rome, in the West, was the first center; now a second one, in the East, would draw together the Greek people on both sides of the Aegean Sea. Thus he could accelerate the unification of the empire by focusing on its two most important elements, Romans and Greeks. Hadrian channeled his intentions in a number of ways, including the use of specific iconographical types on the coinage of his reign and religious language and themes in his interactions with the Greeks. In both cases it becomes evident that the Greeks not only understood his messages, but they also reacted in a positive way.

  • 295 Emanuela Borgia (Rome) CILICIA and the ROMAN EMPIRE
    EMANUELA BORGIA, CILICIA AND THE ROMAN EMPIRE STUDIA EUROPAEA GNESNENSIA 16/2017 ISSN 2082-5951 DOI 10.14746/seg.2017.16.15 Emanuela Borgia (Rome) CILICIA AND THE ROMAN EMPIRE: REFLECTIONS ON PROVINCIA CILICIA AND ITS ROMANISATION Abstract This paper aims at the study of the Roman province of Cilicia, whose formation process was quite long (from the 1st century BC to 72 AD) and complicated by various events. Firstly, it will focus on a more precise determination of the geographic limits of the region, which are not clear and quite ambiguous in the ancient sources. Secondly, the author will thoroughly analyze the formation of the province itself and its progressive Romanization. Finally, political organization of Cilicia within the Roman empire in its different forms throughout time will be taken into account. Key words Cilicia, provincia Cilicia, Roman empire, Romanization, client kings 295 STUDIA EUROPAEA GNESNENSIA 16/2017 · ROME AND THE PROVINCES Quos timuit superat, quos superavit amat (Rut. Nam., De Reditu suo, I, 72) This paper attempts a systematic approach to the study of the Roman province of Cilicia, whose formation process was quite long and characterized by a complicated sequence of historical and political events. The main question is formulated drawing on – though in a different geographic context – the words of G. Alföldy1: can we consider Cilicia a „typical” province of the Roman empire and how can we determine the peculiarities of this province? Moreover, always recalling a point emphasized by G. Alföldy, we have to take into account that, in order to understand the characteristics of a province, it is fundamental to appreciate its level of Romanization and its importance within the empire from the economic, political, military and cultural points of view2.

URL : http://journals.openedition.org/kernos/724 Kernos Kemos, 12 (1999), p. 207-292. Epigtoaphic Bulletin for Greek Religion 1996 (EBGR 1996) The ninth issue of the BEGR contains only part of the epigraphie harvest of 1996; unforeseen circumstances have prevented me and my collaborators from covering all the publications of 1996, but we hope to close the gaps next year. We have also made several additions to previous issues. In the past years the BEGR had often summarized publications which were not primarily of epigraphie nature, thus tending to expand into an unavoidably incomplete bibliography of Greek religion. From this issue on we return to the original scope of this bulletin, whieh is to provide information on new epigraphie finds, new interpretations of inscriptions, epigraphieal corpora, and studies based p;imarily on the epigraphie material. Only if we focus on these types of books and articles, will we be able to present the newpublications without delays and, hopefully, without too many omissions.

I would especially like to thank my advisor, Professor Andrea Berlin, for all her help and advice at all stages of the production process as well as for suggesting the topic to me in the first place. I would also like to thank all the members of my dissertation committee (Professor Susan Herbert of the University of Michigan, as well as Professors Philip Sellew and Nita Krevans of the University of Minnesota) for all their help and support.
