Summary: | Ch. 1: Constituent concepts -- ch. 2: Conceptualization -- ch. 3: A test case: the secular games of 17 B.C. -- ch. 4: Concepts and society -- ch. 5: Conclusions. Concerned with the question of how the concept of 'god' in urban Rome can be analyzed along the lines of six constituent concepts, that is space, time, personnel, function, iconography and ritual, this book develops general criteria for an analysis of pagan, Jewish and Christian concepts of gods in ancient Rome |
