Bürgerrecht und Kultteilnahme - Politische und kultische Rechte und Pflichten in griechischen Poleis, Rom und antikem Judentum

The study examines the thesis widely held in religious studies and theology that in the ancient world there was a close link between the possession of citizenship and the chance- and also the obligation - to engage in cult. There is a critical discussion of different versions of this thesis. The study presents, translates and interprets epigraphic and literary sources on cultic practice and religious law from the Hellenistic Age from Greek poleis, Rome and Judaism.
