A Historical Approach to Urban Growth and Religious Change

Autor*innen

Mehr zum Buch

This book demonstrates how important changes of religion can be better understood as a result of the dialectic of urban life and religion. This general claim is argued in an exemplary manner for the ancient Mediterranean world from the Hellenistic period to the late imperial period and the city of Rome in particular. Many features of ancient religion would be more plausibly viewed as the outcome of specific effects and uses of space and their social and cognitive bases rather than as inherent features of a specific 'religion'.
