The apostle Peter gradually became one of the most famous figures
of the ancient world. His almost undisputed reputation made the
disciple an exquisite anchor by which new practices within and
outside the Church could be established, including innovations in
fields as diverse as architecture, art, cult, epigraphy, liturgy,
poetry and politics. This interdisciplinary volume inquires the way
in which the figure of Peter functioned as an anchor for various
people from different periods and geographical areas. The concept
of Anchoring Innovation is used to investigate the history of the
reception of the apostle Peter from the first century up to
Charlemagne, revealing as much about Peter as about the context in
which this reception took place.
