A Sourcebook Ancient Greek Religion
'Kearns' superb sourcebook makes it possible, for the first time, for students in a convenient, well-informed, and systematic way to engage directly with over 200 primary texts central to the study of Greek religion.' Jon D. Mikalson, University of Virginia
'This is much more than the long-overdue, up-to-date sourcebook on Greek religion; researchers too will find the innovative choice of texts, documents and images and the thoughtful commentary extremely rewarding.' Barbara Kowalzig, Royal Holloway, University of London
Ancient Greek Religion: A Sourcebook presents a wide range of documents relating to the religious world of the ancient Greeks. Drawn from literary texts and inscriptions from the earliest surviving literature to the age of Alexander, the carefully chosen passages shed light on the beliefs, rituals and hierarchy of deities that formed the religious framework of life in ancient Greece. The extant documents - including many lesser known fragmentary texts - serve to illustrate the importance and diversity of religious ritual, as well as the many ways in which the Greeks conceptualised the gods and related stories about them. Further insights are gained through section introductions that set the documents in context, detailed commentary that clarifies and illuminates individual passages, and copious cross-references that reveal the interconnectedness of varied aspects of religious practice and thought.
Ancient Greek Religion is an invaluable contribution to our understanding of the religious practices of one of the world's greatest civilizations.
