Juliane Zachhuber

Religious Life in Late Classical and Hellenistic Rhodes (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Zachhuber focuses on the evidence from one particular part of the ancient world, the island of Rhodes (primarily consisting of texts inscribed on stone), in order to see what we can tease from its diverse voices and narratives, telling the stories of gods, rituals, customs, and people, and to cast a light on how religion shaped this state.
