Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is a historical analysis of the changing religious identity of ancient Rome and an examination of its impact on the Roman people. The author demonstrates that Roman religion was not a fixed and static entity but rather a fluid and evolving phenomenon, shaped by both internal an…d external forces. Rome's earliest religion was a primitive animistic system focused on the practical concerns of agricultural life. This was later supplemented by the patriotic and militaristic religion of the Etruscans, who came to dominate Rome in the 6th century BCE. The author argues that the Etruscan influence was crucial in shaping Rome's sense of national identity and purpose. Over time, Rome came into contact with the more sophisticated and philosophical religions of Greece. This led to a decline in traditional religious beliefs and the rise of skepticism and individualism. The author traces the impact of Greek thought on Roman religion through the writings of Cicero and others. The book concludes by examining the rise of Christianity and its eventual triumph over the traditional Roman religion. The author argues that this triumph was due in part to Christianity's ability to offer a sense of individual salvation and purpose in a world that was increasingly complex and uncertain.
