This book collects twenty two previously published essays and one
new one by Erich S. Gruen who has written extensively on the
literature and history of early Judaism and the experience of the
Jews in the Greco-Roman world. His many articles on this subject
have, however, appeared mostly in conference volumes and
Festschriften, and have therefore not had wide circulation. By
putting them together in a single work, this will bring the essays
to the attention of a much broader scholarly readership and make
them more readily available to students in the fields of ancient
history and early Judaism. The pieces are quite varied, but develop
a number of connected and related themes: Jewish identity in the
pagan world, the literary representations by Jews and pagans of one
another, the interconnections of Hellenism and Judaism, and the
Jewish experience under Hellenistic monarchies and the Roman
empire.
