Description

Roman Edessa provides a thorough scholarly examination of the ancient city of Edessa, located in what is now Urfa, Turkey, during its period as a vital crossroads between Eastern and Western civilisations from 114 to 242 C.E. This Routledge Classical Monograph explores the multifaceted aspects of Edessene society, including the city's distinctive cultural heritage and its historical antecedents that shaped its development as a centre of intellectual and religious activity. The work investigates the extent of Hellenization that occurred in Edessa prior to the emergence of Christianity as a dominant force, examining how Greek influence permeated the city's institutions and daily life. Additionally, the book addresses significant religious developments and traditions within Edessa, whilst also critically analysing the legendary correspondence between King Abgar and Jesus, a narrative that has long fascinated scholars and theologians alike.
