Editor's Note:
English The famous environments of ancient Rome seem to emerge nowhere as clearly as they do in the aristocratic banquet. The ancient sources report ostentatious hosts, vomiting guests and humiliated servants, of sexual dissoluteness, eccentric culinary creation, of frivolous use and deliberate destruction of the most costly household goods. The urban aristocracy generally did not seek for genial relaxation alone with their feasts. The "convivium" numbered among the central institutions of the aristocratic houses and fulfilled functions, which extended beyond the domestic on the one side public opinion was shaped there and on the other side the feasts contributed to the manifestation and reproduction of social ranking and the hierarchy of prestige through the working protocols of seating arrangements as well as public presentation of concurrent circles of friends for the transparency of the roman social order. Dirk Schnurbusch reveals the typical conventions of the aristocratic conviviality and the meaning of the feast as an important space of interaction and communication of the Roman elite.German Die beruehmten äZustände wie im alten Rom scheinen nirgendwo so deutlich hervorzutreten wie beim aristokratischen Bankett. Die antiken Quellen berichten von protzenden Gastgebern, erbrechenden Gästen und gedemuetigten Dienern, von sexueller Zuegellosigkeit, exzentrischen kulinarischen Kreationen, der leichtfertigen Benutzung und vorsätzlichen Zerstörung kostbarsten Hausrats.Die stadtrömische Aristokratie suchte bei ihren Gastmählern allerdings nicht nur die gesellige Entspannung. Das convivium zählte zu den zentralen Einrichtungen aristokratischer Häuser und erfuellte Funktionen, die ueber die häusliche Sphäre weit Einerseits bildete sich dort die öffentliche Meinung, zum anderen trug das Gastmahl durch die Manifestation und Reproduktion von Rangordnung und Prestigehierarchie, durch das auf die Sitzordnung wirkende Protokoll sowie die öffentliche Präsentation konkurrierender Freundeskreise zur Transparenz der römischen Gesellschaftsordnung bei.Dirk Schnurbusch legt erstmals die standestypischen Konventionen aristokratischer Geselligkeit und die Bedeutung des Gastmahls als wichtigen Interaktions- und Kommunikationsrahmen der römischen Oberschicht offen.
