Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ancient Romans held complex beliefs in the afterlife, reflected in their religious rites, pantheon of Gods, and ideas expressed in folklore and seasonal festivals. A superb explainer of concepts commonly overlooked by students of antiquity, Franz Cumont seeks to demystify and clarify how important religion was to the Roman people. The life of the populace revolved around the celebration of yearly festivals; the Gods were considered to bring both favor and misfortune upon the society, and keeping the deities pleased occupied the minds of many citizens. This is no truer than in the burial and funerary process: complex traditions, use of certain tools and rituals for the dead were crucial for the cohesion of Roman communities. Roman society was heavily influenced by Greece, yet the author is keen to distinguish between Greek-inspired practices and those introduced by Romans or from other traditions farther afield. Cumont discusses how the funeral banquet - a feast whereby the dead person is commemorated - originated from Egyptian tradition; the sacred meal taken to honor the dead and to help their journey to the next world. The notion of the soul's transit to an afterlife is explained in intimate detail, with surviving sources by Roman scholars, plus archaeological findings, supporting Cumont's accounts. In all, the reader can gain herein a unique impression of the interplay of ancient religious traditions as reflected in Roman life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from After Life in Roman Paganism In the year 1883 a legacy of eighty thousand dollars was left to the President and Fellows of Yale College in the city of New Haven, to be held in trust, as a gift from her children, in memory of their beloved and honored mother, Mrs. Hepsa Ely Silliman. On this foundation Yale College was requested and directed to establish an annual course of lectures designed to illustrate the presence and providence, the wisdom and goodness of God, as manifested in the natural and moral world. These were to be designated as the Mrs. Hepsa Ely Silliman Memorial Lectures. It was the belief of the testator that any orderly presentation of the facts of nature or history contributed to the end of this foundation more effectively than any attempt to emphasize the elements of doctrine or of creed; and he therefore provided that lectures on dogmatic or polemical theology should be excluded from the scope of this foundation, and that the subjects should be selected, rather, from the domains of natural science, and history, giving special prominence to astronomy, chemistry, geology, and anatomy. It was further directed that each annual course should be made the basis of a volume to form part of a series constituting a memorial to Mrs. Silliman. The memorial fund came into the possession of the Corporation of Yale University in the year 1901; and the present volume constitutes the sixteenth of the series of memorial lectures.
