New Antiquities: Transformations of Ancient Religion in the New Age and Beyond

by Dylan M. Burns and Burns

Book Overview

Just as we speak of 'dead' languages, we say that religions 'die out'. Yet, sometimes, people try to revive them, today more than ever. New Antiquities addresses this phenomenon through critical examination of how individuals and groups appeal to, reconceptualize, and reinvent the religious world of the ancient Mediterranean as they attempt to legitimize developments in contemporary religious culture and associated activity.
