The gods were the true heroes of Rome. In this major new
contribution to our understanding of ancient history, Jorg Rupke
guides the reader through the fascinating world of Roman religion,
describing its unique characteristics and bringing its
peculiarities into stark relief.
Rupke gives a thorough and engaging account of the multiplicity
of cults worshipped by peasant and aristocrat alike, the many
varied rites and rituals daily observed, and the sacrifices and
offerings regularly brought to these immortals by the population of
Ancient Rome and its imperial colonies.
This important study provides the perfect introduction to Roman
religion for students of Ancient Rome and Classical
Civilization.
