The Gods of Ancient Greece

This is a very rich collection of papers which no one interested in ancient Greek religion can afford to miss. – Frederick Naerebout * BMCR *This volume is essential reading for all those interested directly or indirectly in ancient Greek religion…as it offers an overview of the progress of research in this area. – Gabriella Pironti, Università degli Studi di Napoli * Kernos *Scholars and others will hugely welcome the reappearance, now in its paperback form, of the fifth in the invaluable series of Edinburgh Leventis Studies. The renascence of theoretically sophisticated research into the often desperately foreign world of ancient Greek polytheism is perfectly captured by this deeply learned, far-shooting and richly various collection. * Paul Cartledge, A.G. Leventis Professor of Greek Culture, University of Cambridge *
