The volume publishes over 20 papers given at an international conference
of the same name held in Innsbruck in January 2009 to celebrate the 60th
birthday of Christoph Ulf. The main focus of the conference was
discussion of and responses to his paper 'Rethinking Cultural Contacts' (Ancient
West & East 8 [2009], 81-132 - reproduced as Appendix 1 in this
volume). Ulf's paper offered a model outlining the various forms of
cultural contact and sought to explain how and why foreign goods and
ideas were taken on and to what extent they were changed in shape and
meaning. Just as it was no longer tenable to think of cultural contacts
without taking into account the whole chain of exchange - producer,
transmitter and recipient - then cultural exchange as a meaningful
process of the exchange of goods and ideas between all people involved
required an approach, hitherto lacking, by which it can be
comprehensively analysed and explained. The contributors are ancient
historians, classical archaeologists, philologists and Near Eastern
specialists, thus providing a variety of perspectives on cultural
exchange in the Mediterranean and the ancient Near East.
