English summary: The Papyrological Commentary on First Corinthians examines how Paul or his readers were influenced by the language of everyday life, private and official, which is preserved most of all in documentary papyri and related material. German description: Der Kommentar bietet eine Vers-fur-Vers-Untersuchung des 1. Korintherbriefes auf dem Hintergrund von Papyri und Ostraka (Tonscherben). Diese Zeugnisse des privaten, amtlichen und religiosen Lebens, wie sie uns auf Fragmenten erhalten sind, ermoglichen einen unmittelbaren Zugang zur Alltagswelt der Griechen und Romer. Erstmals werden auf diesem Hintergrund die Sprache, die Textsorten und die Themen des authentischen Paulusbriefes untersucht. In Exkursen werden dem Leser Informationen zur zeitgeschichtlichen und sozialen Situation sowie zu Einzelthemen wie Ehe und Ehescheidung, Haartracht oder Gotzenopfermahl dargeboten. Durch die Auswertung des papyrologischen Materials gewahren uns die Autoren einen neuen Einblick in die Bedeutung einzelner Begriffe und Wendungen des Paulus.

1. Korinther

The nineteenth century witnessed a proliferation of alternative religious currents and practices, appropriating earlier traditions, entangling geographically distinct spiritual discourses, and crafting a repository of mindscapes eminently suitable to be accommodated by later generations of thinkers and practitioners. Penned by specialists in the field, this volume examines important themes and figures pertaining to this occult amalgam and its resonance into the twentieth century and beyond. Global guises of the occult, ranging from the Americas and Europe to India, are variously addressed, with special attention to the crucial role of mesmerism and the origins of modern yoga.
