A case study of the archeology of the banquet / Carolyn Osiek -- Social and political characteristics of Greco-Roman association meals / Richard S. Ascough -- Banqueting values in the associations: rhetoric and reality / Philip A. Harland -- Women in early Christian meal gatherings: discourse and reality / Angela Standhartinger -- Remembering and remembered women in Greco-Roman meals / Ellen Bradshaw Aitken -- Present and absent: women at Greco-Roman wedding meals / Susan Marks -- Evidence for slaves at the table in the ancient Mediterranean: from traditional rural festivals to urban associations / Nancy A. Evans -- The sex trade and slavery at meals / Carly Daniel-Hughes -- The saturnalia in Greco-Roman culture / Angela Standhartinger -- Early Christian meals and slavery / Lillian I. Larsen -- Slaves at Greco-Roman banquets: a response / Jennifer A. Glancy -- Bodies in motion, bodies at rest: status, corporeality, and the negotiation of power at ancient meals / Carly Daniel-Hughes -- Temptations of the table: Christians respond to reclining culture / Jennifer A. Glancy -- A Valentinian response to the culture of reclining / Ellen Bradshaw Aitken -- Monastic meals: resisting a reclining culture? / Lillian I. Larsen -- Inclined to decline reclining? Women, corporeality, and dining posture in early rabbinic literature / Jordan D. Rosenblum.

In the past 20 years a new paradigm has emerged around the study of festive dining as a seminal social practice that functioned as the matrix for social formation of a variety of groups in the Greco-Roman world, including earliest Christianity and pre-Rabbinic Judaism. Most recently, an international team of scholars, organized as the Society of Biblical Literature Seminar on Meals in the Greco-Roman World, has developed this paradigm in a series of groundbreaking studies. This book provides a collection of those studies divided into three categories of investigation: 1) The Typology and Context of the Greco-Roman Banquet, 2) Who Was at the Greco-Roman Banquets, 3) The Culture of Reclining. These studies extend the scope of the influence of the meals and begin to detail their effects on a variety of Greco-Roman populations. Together they establish festive meals as an essential lens into social formation in the Greco-Roman world.
