Between Magic and Religion represents a radical rethinking of
traditional distinctions involving the term 'religion' in the
ancient Greek world and beyond, through late antiquity to the
seventeenth century. The title indicates the fluidity of such
concepts as religion and magic, highlighting the wide variety of
meanings evoked by these shifting terms from ancient to modern
times. The contributors put these meanings to the test, applying a
wide range of methods in exploring the many varieties of available
historical, archaeological, iconographical, and literary evidence.
No reader will ever think of magic and religion the same way after
reading through the findings presented in this book. Both terms
emerge in a new light, with broader applications and deeper
meanings.
