Synopsis
Contributing Authors

The selected essays of Herwig Gorgemanns, which have been collected in this volume for the Greek scholar from Heidelberg to commemorate his 80th birthday, combine all those elements which elsewhere would come undone in disciplinary fragmentation and in the disparity between specialization and communication skills. Detailed studies of ancient literature, the history of ideas and science are combined with a masterful description of the major philosophical and religious-theological contexts in the works of Herwig Gorgemanns.

Die kleinen Schriften von Herwig Gorgemanns, die in diesem Band anlasslich des 80. Geburtstages des Heidelberger Grazisten versammelt sind, vereinen, was andernorts in disziplinarer Zersplitterung und im Auseinanderdriften von Spezialistentum und Vermittlungskompetenz auseinanderfallt: Detailstudien zur antiken Literatur, Geistesgeschichte und Naturwissenschaft verbinden sich im Werk von Herwig Gorgemanns mit einer souveranen Darstellung der grossen philosophischen und religios-theologischen Zusammenhange. Die hier versammelten Beitrage reichen von der Frage nach “Wahrheit und Fiktion in Platons Atlantis-Erzahlung” uber das Problem der “Sonnenfinsternisse in der antiken Astronomie” bis hin zu Darstellungen der Geschichte der Ethik, der “Jenseitsfurcht und Jenseitshoffnung bei den Griechen” und von “Kosmologie, Kosmogonie und Schopfung”. Sie enthalten Interpretationen von Platon und dem homerischen Hermeshymnus bis hin zu Cicero, Plutarch und Mark Aurel, dem 4. Makkabaerbuch und Origenes.
