Sumario: | A comprehensive treatment of the significant symbols and institutions of Roman religion, this Companion places the various religious symbols, discourses, and practices, including Judaism and Christianity, into a larger framework to reveal the sprawling landscape of the Roman religion. An innovative introduction to Roman religion, which approaches the field with a focus on the human-figures instead of the gods, analyzes religious changes from the eighth century BC to the fourth century AD, offers the first history of religious motifs on coins and household/everyday utensils, and presents Roman religion within its cultural, social, and historical contexts |
