Bricault,Laurent & Corinne Bonnet. (eds). — Panthée. Religious transformations in the Graeco-Roman Empire.

Leiden & Boston, Brill, 2013. X,[1],385 pp. [43] b./w. figs. Orig. hardcover (boards). 8vo. (Religions in the Graeco-Roman World, Vol. 177). [ISBN: 978-90-04-25687-3]. - As new."Panthée presents a collective reflection relating to the changes that affected the Graeco-Roman Empire and over the long term altered its religious landscapes. Fifty years after the foundation of the series EPRO, the volume aims to avoid the division between the supposedly "Roman" or "Graeco-Roman" and the "Oriental" by linking the available information relating the different major areas, such as the relation between local and global, the place of emotions in relation to soteriological and initiatory aspects, strategies of integration and negotiation of identities. For the first time the leading specialists in every field bring their approaches into contact with one another, and jointly construct a picture of practices and conceptual frames, which, in their diversity and inter-action, model a religious universe whose complexity will help to understand our modern globalising world.
