Potsdam contributions to classical studies
The Potsdam Classical Studies Contributions (PAwB) are a series of scientific publications in the field of classical classical studies . According to the self-image, it offers an international forum for work from different ancient science disciplines, which is expressly intended to reach a group of people beyond a small group of specialists.
The Potsdam Classical Studies articles have been published by Franz Steiner Verlag in Stuttgart since 1999 . They are led by the Spanish ancient historian Pedro Barceló (University of Potsdam), Peter Riemer (formerly University of Potsdam, now University of the Saarland, Saarbrücken), the classical philologist and religious historian Jörg Rüpke (formerly University of Potsdam, now University of Erfurt) and the Franco-Luxembourgish ancient historian and religious historian John Scheid (Collège de France). The editorship is closely linked to the ancient science departments of the University of Potsdam . The series consists largely of university papers and conference proceedings. There are also independent monographs, but also manuals or thematic anthologies. If the topics so require, larger numbers of picture panels, thematic indices or other forms of text indexing are also offered. Initially published an average of one or two volumes a year, it was recently up to five.
The main publication language is German, but all other major scientific languages (English, French, Italian) are also possible in this area. In terms of content, all areas of classical antiquity are included, works on ancient history as well as works on classical archeology and classical philology . One focus is the ancient history of religion .
