| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The aim of this project was to examine emotional responses to the various types of death as described in Greek inscriptions from western Asia Minor, from the sixth century BCE to the fourth century CE. Focusing on dynamic relationships between an individual type of death, a specific rhetoric to describe it, and an emotion that the type and rhetoric evoke, I attempted to shed fresh light on the Greek form of emotional communication between the donors of inscriptions and their audiences, including strategies and manipulations controlling the expression of emotions. The results of this project divide into two stages. In the first stage, I compiled a database of deaths and related emotions, surveying the Steinepigramme aus dem griechischen Osten. In the second stage, those inscriptions that contain detailed information on the processes of dying were dealt with, especially in terms of their relevance to the social and political history of the Hellenistic and Roman East.
