Epic and tragedy, from Homer's Achilles and Euripides' Pentheus to Marlowe's Tamburlaine and Milton's Satan, are filled with characters challenging and warring against the gods. Nowhere is the theme of theomachy more frequently and powerfully represented, however, than in the poetry of early imperial Rome, from Ovid's Metamorphoses at the beginning of the first century AD to Statius' Thebaid near its end. This book -- the first full-length study of human-divine conflict in Roman literature -- asks why the war against god was so important to the poets of the time and how this understudied period of literary history influenced a larger tradition in Western literature. Drawing on a variety of contexts -- politics, religion, philosophy, and aesthetics -- Pramit Chaudhuri argues for the fundamental importance of battles between humans and gods in representing the Roman world. A cast of tyrants, emperors, rebels, iconoclasts, philosophers, and ambitious poets brings to life some of the most extraordinary artistic products of classical antiquity. Based on close readings of the major extant epics and selected tragedies, the book replaces a traditionally Aeneid-centric view of imperial epic with a richer dialogue between Greek and Roman texts, contemporary authors, and diverse genres. The renewed sense of a tradition reveals how the conflicts these works represent constitute a distinctive theology informed by other discourses yet peculiar to epic and tragedy. Beginning with the Greek background and ending with a look ahead to developments in the Renaissance, this book charts the history of a theme that would find its richest expression in a time when men became gods and impiety threatened the very order of the world. ; 416 pages

Very faint shelfwear else fine. ; Les fêtes publiques constituent sans nul doute un thème privilégié pour l'étude des religions antiques. Jalonnant en abondance les calendriers et profondément enracinées dans la vie sociale ainsi que politique, elles sont censées, à un titre tout spécial, promouvoir entre les hommes et les dieux des relations harmonieuses. Le sentiment d'une présence divine y est généralement très vif et, en Grèce plus particulièrement, on y trouve souvent réunies en un ensemble organique les principales manifestations de la dévotion religieuse : valorisation d'un temps sacré lié au rythme des saisons et de lieux saints traditionnels où l'on se rend en procession, prières, libations et offrandes, sacrifices et banquets collectifs, musiques, hymnes et danses, à quoi s'ajoutent encore, suivant un usage qui n'a fait que s'amplifier, des jeux et des concours. Cette accumulation de gestes pieux, accomplis dans une ambiance euphorique et conviviale de détente, contribue à faire de ces célébrations festives des temps forts de la vie des cités. Explorant ce thème d'une richesse quasi inépuisable, les quatorze études ici rassemblées forment un éventail très diversifié qui va des origines créto-mycéniennes de la religion grecque aux premiers siècles de notre ère, marqué par des conflits entre le culte impérial et le christianisme, en passant par les fêtes ancestrales qu'évoquent les poètes Homère ainsi que Pindare et par le renouveau qu'elles connaissent à la période hellénistique. Divers espaces du monde antique sont également parcourus, à commencer, certes, par la Grèce continentale et par Rome, mais en passant aussi par la Crète et par Chypre, par l'Asie Mineure où ont lieu des fêtes très particulières en l'honneur de Dionysos, par les rassemblements fédéraux qu'organisent les cités étrusques et par les cérémonies festives que l'on découvre dans les provinces romaines du centre de l'Europe. Ces approches pluridisciplinaires font alterner des exposés au sujet très ciblé et des essais de synthèse, tandis qu'un article conclusif vise à projeter sur la notion de fête les lumières de l'histoire des religions et amorce au passage une comparaison entre fêtes grecques et fêtes romaines. Les différentes contributions sont riches de nombreuses références aux travaux modernes.; Homo Religiosus Série II; 9.4 X 6.3 X 0.9 inches; 306 pages
Very faint shelfwear to rear wrap. ; This book is the first attempt that has ever been made to give a comprehensive account of the religious life of ancient Athens. The city's many festivals are discussed in detail, with attention to recent anthropological theory; so too, for instance, are the cults of households and of smaller groups, the role of religious practice and argumentation in public life, the authority of priests, the activities of religious professionals such as seers and priestesses, magic, the place of theatrical representations of the gods within public attitudes to the divine. A long final section considers the sphere of activity of the various gods, and takes Athens as a uniquely detailed test case for the structuralist approach to polytheism. The work is a synchronic, thematically organized complement (though designed to be read independently) to the same author's Athenian Religion: A History (OUP, 1996). ; 576 pages

Faint bump to base of spine. Very light shelfwear else fine. ; Silvanus war einer der populärsten Götter in den Donauprovinzen. Er prägte das religiöse Leben verschiedener sozialer Schichten der Provinzialbevölkerung vor allem in den wichtigsten Städten in diesem Teil des Imperium Romanum. Silvanus unterscheidet sich dabei allerdings radikal von seinem italischen Archetypus. Dies wurde in der Forschung mit dem Phänomen des Synkretismus zwischen dem italischen Gott und einem illyrischen, gallischen sowie dakischen Gott erklärt. In Peripherie-Denken wird für diese Differenz eine neue Erklärung angeboten. Hierbei liegt der analytische Fokus nicht auf dem 'ontologischen' "Warum" der Begründung, sondern auf dem funktionalen "Wie" der Beschreibung: Die Prozesse, die die Transformationen des italischen in den Silvanus der Donauprovinzen strukturieren, stehen im Zentrum der Untersuchung. Ein anderer Schwerpunkt liegt in der Analyse des Beitrages der Religion für die soziale Integration in einer globalen Konstellation. Das Buch stellt nicht nur religiöse Prozesse in einem imperialen Kontext dar, es leistet auch einen Ansatz für eine neue methodologische Herangehensweise an das System Religion. ; Potsdamer Altertumswissenschaftliche Beiträge (Pawb) Band 35; 340 pages
In ancient Greece, religion and politics were inextricably linked. This symbiosis manifests itself particularly clearly in Greek sanctuaries as locations of both cult practices and political activities. A colloquium held at Munster aimed at analysing the formative function of trans-regional sanctuaries in mainland Greece and on the Greek islands in the genesis and legitimisation of political order in Greek tribal alliances and federal states from the Archaic down to the Hellenistic period. Religion und Politik waren im antiken Griechenland auf das Engste miteinander verwoben. Besonders deutlich manifestiert sich diese Symbiose in griechischen Heiligtumern als Orten kultischer Handlungen und zugleich politischen Agierens. Das Munsteraner Kolloquium analysiert die formative Funktion uberregionaler Heiligtumer in Griechenland und der griechischen Inselwelt bei der Genese und Legitimation von politischer Ordnung in griechischen Stammesbunden und Bundesstaaten von der archaischen bis in die hellenistische Zeit. ; 244 pages
