In Isis Pelagia: Images, Names and Cults of a Goddess of the Seas,
Laurent Bricault, one of the principal scholars of the cults of
Isis, presents a new interpretation of the multiple sources that
present Isis as a goddess of the seas. Bricault discusses a wealth
of relatively unknown archaeological and textual data, drawing on a
profound knowledge of their historical context. After decades of
scholarly study, Bricault offers an important contribution and a
new phase in the debate on understanding the "diffusion" as well as
the "reception" of the cults of Isis in the Graeco-Roman world.
This book, the first English-language monograph by the leading
French scholar in the field, underlines the importance of Isis
Studies for broader debates in the study of ancient religion.
