Knowledge in the fields of medicine, history, philosophy, and poetry joined with rhetorical brilliance and a presentable manner became the outward appearance of the elite of the Eastern Roman Empire. This outward appearance guaranteed a high social status as well as political and economical power for the individual and major advantages for their hometowns in interpolis competition. Since paideia was related particularly to Classical Greek antiquity, it was, at the same time, fundamental to the new self-confidence of the Greek East. This book presents, for the first time, studies from a broad range of disciplines on various fields of life and on different media, in which this ideology became manifest.

Für die kaiserzeitlichen Eliten wurde die Verbindung von Kenntnissen auf den Gebieten der Medizin, Geschichte, Philosophie und Dichtung mit rhetorischer Brillanz und repräsentativem Auftreten zum Kennzeichen eines umfassenden Habitus. Dieser garantierte einen hohen Sozialstatus, politische und ökonomische Macht für den Einzelnen sowie maßgebliche Vorteile für ihre Heimatstädte in der Städtekonkurrenz. Da sich Bildung wesentlich auf die klassisch-griechische Antike bezog, war sie zudem entscheidend für das neue Selbstbewusstsein des griechischen Ostens. Dieser Band führt erstmals in multidisziplinärer Breite verschiedenste Lebensbereiche und Medien zusammen, in denen sich diese Ideologie manifestiert.
