Die Bewältigung moralischer Vergehen war von jeher kompliziert. Soll man sich rächen, Entschädigung fordern, gnädig sein, die Verletzung ignorieren oder vergeben? Thomas Kazen und Rikard Roitto vergleichen, wie Griechen, Römer, Juden und Christen in der Antike verschiedene Vorstellungen, Methoden und Rituale zur moralischen Wiedergutmachung handhabten.
