In Praise of Polytheism

Om In Praise of Polytheism

""In the pages of this charming, witty, deeply learned, and highly original book, Maurizio Bettini celebrates the openness, flexibility, and respect for others characteristic of Greek and Roman polytheisms, suggesting that these provide attractive alternatives to the exclusivity, condescension, and tepid 'tolerance' that typify their monotheistic successors. A delight to read and ponder."--Bruce Lincoln, author of Gods and Demons, Priests and Scholars: Critical Explorations in the History of Religions "Both accessible and engaging, the extensive list of topics and the variety of ancient and modern texts, practices, and ideas Bettini discusses will open up polytheism for modern readers."--Duncan MacRae, Associate Professor of Ancient Greek and Roman Studies, University of California, Berkeley, and author of Legible Religion
