Focusing on forms of interaction and methods of negotiation in
multicultural, multi-ethnic and multilingual contexts during
Antiquity and the Middle Ages, this volume examines questions of
social and cultural interaction within and between diverse ethnic
communities. Toleration and coexistence were essential in all late
antique and medieval societies and their communities. However,
power struggles and prejudices could give rise to suspicion,
conflict and violence. All of these had a central influence on
social dynamics, negotiations of collective or individual identity,
definitions of ethnicity and the shaping of legal rules. What was
the function of multicultural and multilingual interaction: did it
create and increase conflicts, or was it rather a prerequisite for
survival and prosperity? The focus of this book is society and the
history of everyday life, examining gender, status and ethnicity
and the various forms of interaction and negotiation.
