DESCRIPTION:Response\nvon Oliver Freiberger (KHK fellow) zum Panel Faking 
 Asceticism: East and West\nPanelleitung: Almut Barbara Renger\, Tudor Sala
 \nThe  ancient world was a culture of suspicion. The individual\, whether 
  stranger\, neighbor\, or kin\, was under constant scrutiny in a  face-to-
 face society in which rivalry\, competition\, and misgivings  nagged at th
 e surface of the self. The circumstance of being  world-renouncers would n
 ot have placed ascetics in the blind spot of  public mistrust. The perform
 ative\, elitist\, and counter-cultural aspects  of ancient asceticism actu
 ally exposed it to a heightened scrutiny from  outsiders\, critics\, and r
 ivals alike. The papers of the panel thematize  practices and polemics tha
 t constructed ‘ascetic deceit’ in  Mediterranean and Asian cultures\, 
 with a special focus on the processes  of institutionalization\, innovatio
 n\, and change that initiated or framed  the various normative dichotomies
  of ‘genuine’ versus ‘fake’.\n(panel 25-118 | 115)
