Das Hauptseminar thematisiert das ökonomische Agieren zwischen dem Mittelmeerraum und den Seewegen des Rotes Meeres und des Persischen Golfes bis nach Indien. Neben den literarischen Quellen werden dabei insbesondere Dokumente aus der historischen Papyrologie und der Epigraphik sowie die diversen archäologischen und numismatischen Hinterlassenschaften einen breiten Raum einnehmen. Beleuchtet werden auch die kulturspezifischen Werte- und Regelsysteme sowie die Kultur- und Sprachgrenzen und die kulturelle Einbettung wirtschaftlichen Handelns; nutzbar gemacht wird hierfür das von Christoph Ulf entwickelte theoretische Modell zur wissenschaftlichen Analyse interkultureller Kontakte.

The course focuses on the economic activities between the Mediterranean, the Red Sea, the Persian Gulf and India. In addition to literary sources, documentary papyri and inscriptions as well as the archaeological and numismatic legacies will play a major role. Within the scope of the course culture-specific systems of values and rules, cultural and linguistic boundaries, and the cultural embedding of economic activity will likewise be examined; for this purpose, the theoretical model for the scientific analysis of intercultural contacts developed by Christoph Ulf will be used.
