Die Iliasglossare nehmen im Rahmen der papyrologischen Zeugnisse zur Erklärung homerischer Texte eine zentrale Stellung ein, weil sie die größte erhaltene Dokumentation darstellen und einen beträchtlichen Zeitraum (1.-7. Jh. n.Chr.) umfassen. In dem vorliegenden Band wird eine neue Aufstellung dieser Iliasglossare auf Papyrus geboten und die materiellen, inhaltlichen und kontextbezogenen Aspekte der Dokumentation untersucht, um ein Gesamtbild der Iliasglossare als Zeugnisse der Kulturgeschichte Ägyptens zu bieten. Zudem werden drei auf Papyrus überlieferte Iliasglossare neuediert.
Oliver Kahl and Henrietta Sharp Cockrell present a facsimile edition of a newly discovered medieval medical text attributed to the famous physician Abū Bakr Muḥammad ibn Zakariyyāʾ al-Rāzī (Rhazes, d. 925 CE). This unique Arabic manuscript comprises a work in the health regimen genre titled “Book of the Crown” (Kitāb al-Iklīl). Copied in 1220 CE and bound parallel to the text (flip-bound), it is highly unusual, both in terms of physical appearance and topical choices. The edition is accompanied by an annotated English translation en regard, a detailed introduction including a codicological study, and bilingual indices.

Which works and tenets of early modern natural law reached East-Central Europe, and how? How was it received, what influence did it have? And how did theorists and users of natural law in East- Central Europe enrich the pan-European discourse? This volume is pioneering in two ways; it draws the east of the Empire and its borderlands into the study of natural law, and it adds natural law to the practical discourse of this region.

Drawing on a large amount of previously neglected printed or handwritten sources, the authors highlight the impact that Grotius, Pufendorf, Heineccius and others exerted on the teaching of politics and moral philosophy as well as on policies regarding public law, codification praxis, or religious toleration.
