His almost undisputed reputation made the disciple an exquisite anchor by which new practices within and outside the Church could be established, including innovations in fields as diverse as architecture, art, cult, epigraphy, liturgy, poetry and politics. This interdisciplinary volume inquires the way in which the figure of Peter functioned as an anchor for various people from different periods and geographical areas. The concept of Anchoring Innovation is used to investigate the history of the reception of the apostle Peter from the first century up to Charlemagne, revealing as much about Peter as about the context in which this reception took place.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"(...) this volume does make important historiographical contributions about the development of religious figures in a changing urban and political environment. The conceptual basis of anchoring can serve well as a model for studies ranging from the reception of religious texts to the developing role(s) of institutions in urban life and the Anchoring Innovation series seems poised to produce volumes of equal historiographical importance.\" - Andrew Steck, in: BMCR 2021.10.55  \"'Les exposés sont clairs et précis, et ... on ressort convaincu de la majorité des raisonnement exposés. La plupart des auteurs inscrivent leur discours et positionnent leurs idées par rapport à l’idée directrice de l’ouvrage, celle d’« Anchoring Innovation ». Il en résulte un très bel aperçu de la construction de la figure de Pierre et des mécanismes d’ancrage dans l’Antiquité (tardive) qui y sont liés.\" - Charles Wastiau, in: Anabases 2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eForeword   Ineke Sluiter    Preface   Roald Dijkstra    List of Illustrations  Abbreviations  Contributors    part 1: Anchoring the Apostle: the Volume and Its Concept  1 Peter, Popes, Politics and More: the Apostle as Anchor   Roald Dijkstra    2 Ruling through Religion?
