Aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Wolfgang Haase, langjährigem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) / From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - altersgemäß sehr guter Zustand / very good condition for age - What sort of gods did the Romans believe in ? How did they pray ? What happened at a sacrifice? How seriously did they take their whole religion which was later swept away by Christianity? -- These are some of the questions which The Romans and their Gods sets out to answer. It makes wide use of original material (all of which is quoted in translation) to give a picture of religious life at Rome in the period between 80 B.C. and A.D. 69. It describes the acts of worship and recreates the popular holidays and festivals at Rome; it also examines the cult of the Emperor. -- Robert Ogilvie makes it possible for the modern reader to appreciate the real feeling behind the seemingly conventional and formalistic imprecations and appeals to the gods of Roman literature, and to understand the faith which sustained many of Romes most distinguished citizens.
