Description

Explore the complex systems of power that shape our understanding of the ancient world. Rethinking 'Authority' in Late Antiquity examines how authorship, law, and transmission functioned within Jewish and Christian traditions. This scholarly work moves beyond simple content analysis to look at the structures of power and political contingency that allowed certain ancient sources to survive while others were lost. By tracing the history of the category of authority itself, this book helps historians understand how the historiographical order of knowledge has evolved. It provides a deep look at how the preservation of texts is tied to broader political realities. This monograph is an essential resource for students and researchers focusing on the transition of power and the survival of religious and legal traditions in the late antique period.
