For some time interest has been growing in a dialogue between
modern scientific research into human cognition and research in the
humanities. This ground-breaking volume focuses this dialogue on
the religious experience of men and women in the ancient Greek and
Roman worlds. Each chapter examines a particular historical problem
arising from an ancient religious activity and the contributions
range across a wide variety of both ancient contexts and sources,
exploring and integrating literary, epigraphic, visual and
archaeological evidence. In order to avoid a simple polarity
between physical aspects (ritual) and mental aspects (belief) of
religion, the contributors draw on theories of cognition as
embodied, emergent, enactive and extended, accepting the
complexity, multimodality and multicausality of human life. Through
this interdisciplinary approach, the chapters open up new questions
around and develop new insights into the physical, emotional, and
cognitive aspects of ancient religions.
