There is hardly a more controversial issue in the study of ancient
religion than Orphism. More than two centuries of debate have not
closed the subject, since new evidence and divergent approaches
have kept appearing regularly. This volume sheds light on the most
relevant pieces of evidence for ancient Orphism, collected in the
recent edition by Alberto Bernabe. It contains 65 short new studies
on Orphic fragments by leading international scholars who comment
one of the most controversial phenomena in Antiquity from a
plurality of perspectives. Readers will acquire a global vision of
the multiple dimensions of the Orphic tradition, as well as many
new insights into particular Orphic fragments.
