The Gods, the State, and the Individual: Reflections on Civic Religion in Rome by John Scheid
Requirements: ePUB Reader, 1.2MB
Overview: Roman religion has long presented a number of challenges to historians approaching the subject from a perspective framed by the three Abrahamic religions. The Romans had no sacred text that espoused its creed or offered a portrait of its foundational myth. They described relations with the divine using technical terms widely employed to describe relations with other humans. Indeed, there was not even a word in classical Latin that corresponds to the English word “religion.”
