GRK 1144: Forms of Prestige in Cultures of the Ancient World

声望，即社会某一特定部分所承认或归属的声誉，代表着古代世界各种文化中社会关系的核心要素。虽然声望是建立在排他性的基础上的，但它同时也依赖于普遍接受。在不同的时代和不同的文化中，声望到底意味着什么，它是如何获得或授予的，以及它可能发生了怎样的变化，以前的学术都没有阐明。

Prestige, that is reputation recognised or ascribed by a particular part of a society, represents a central element of societal relations in the various cultures of the Ancient World. While prestige is based on exclusiveness, it is at the same time dependent on general acceptance. What precisely is implied by prestige at various times and in diverse cultures, how it was acquired or awarded and how it may have changed has not been elucidated by previous scholarship.
