International Workshop: Religious Temporalities and the Ancient City
When: 15-16 May, 2025
Where: University of Groningen, venue t.b.a.
The focus of this international workshop is on the role of religion in conceptualizations of time and its importance in the ancient city. Ancient cities brought together a plurality of time systems such as calendars, shared rhythms and routines, narratives of the past and future. Religion is at the crossroads of many of these urban temporalities. Rituals regulated the days, months, and seasons of human time, with transregional ‘panhellenic’ festivals synchronizing cities across the Mediterranean. Yet festivals also had a transcendent capacity of lifting the individual out of the everyday, creating ‘atemporal’ communities that extend beyond the boundaries of the living and the dead.
This workshop aims to explore the diversity of temporalities of the ancient city through the lens of religion.
Keynote speaker is Prof.dr. Jörg Rüpke (Max-Weber-Kolleg, Universität Erfurt).
Organized through the CRASIS network ‘Time and Temporalities in the Ancient World’ and the Groningen Research Institute for the Study of Culture (ICOG) at the University of Groningen, together with the OIKOS research groups ‘Cultural Interactions in the Ancient World’, and ‘Cities and Settlements in the Ancient World’.
