Accordingly, the three volumes bring together contributions from friends, colleagues, and students of Robert Rollinger. The themes of these some 80 articles are in line with Rollinger's research foci. Therefore, there are articles dealing with themes from the field of classical studies and thus the ancient Mediterranean world, the Ancient Near East and Persia as well as Iran. In addition - also in line with Robert Rollinger's academic activities and his own research interests - there are essays on the history of Austria, in particular on that of Vorarlberg, the honoree's homeland. Old America is also given thematic consideration. Moreover, the reception of the Ancient Worlds is also addressed. The work consists of three volumes and is divided into five sections. The first deals with the classical world and its entanglement with the Ancient Near East; the second section focusses on the Ancient Near East. The third section is dedicated to the Iranian world in its imperial longue duree, while the fourth section looks at the global as well as the local history taking into account the perspective of Global and Universal History.
