SPA. Sanitas Per Aquam
Tagungsband des Internationalen Frontinus-Symposiums zur Technik und Kulturgeschichte der antiken Thermen. Aachen, 18.-22. Marz 2009
edited by R. Kreiner and W. Letzner
In den letzten Jahren wurde zu den antiken Thermen intensiv geforscht. Umfangreiche Thermenkomplexe wurden vom Nahen Osten bis Westeuropa neu ergraben und dokumentiert. Der vorliegende Tagungsband enthalt 45 Beitrage des Internationalen Frontinus-Symposiums des Jahres 2009 in Aachen. In Anbetracht des Tagungsortes lag ein besonderer Schwerpunkt der Veranstaltung bei den antiken Heilbadern. Im Sinne einer integralen Konzeption von Geschichte stellen Forscher verschiedener Disziplinen unterschiedliche Aspekte des antiken Badewesens dar: Technische Gesichtspunkte etwa, wie die zentrale Frage nach der Wasserver- und -entsorgung oder der Beheizung. Fragen der Funktion und Organisation des offentlichen Badewesens in der Antike werden behandelt. Auch der kulturelle und religiose Kontext mit Blick auf die Romanisierung der romischen Provinzen findet Beachtung. Das Tagungsthema war explizit nicht auf die romischen Thermen eingeengt. So werden auch die Fruhformen des offentlichen Badewesens, sowie das Fortleben romischer Badeanlagen und der Badekultur im westlichen, byzantinischen und islamischen Mittelalter thematisiert. Von aktueller Bedeutung sind die abschlieaenden Beitrage, die der Frage gewidmet sind: Wie kann man wissenschaftliche Ergebnisse bzw. bauliche Artefakte fur ein breites Publikum zuganglich machen?
