Excerpt from The Religious Life of Ancient Rome: A Study in the Development of Religious Consciousness From the Foundation of the City, Until the Death of Gregory the Great

The eight chapters of this book were originally eight lectures delivered before the Lowell Institute in Boston during January, 1911. Though they have been slightly recast, their character as lectures has been preserved, even at the risk of retaining statements which are more dogmatic than one would make in a book of essays writ ten to be read. But the theory of religious evolution here developed is put forth in the hope that it may arouse thought and discussion; and to this end a positive state ment seems desirable.
