Book Literature and Religion at Rome

Download or read book Literature and Religion at Rome written by Denis Feeney and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1998-01-13 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent reevaluations of Roman religion by ancient historians have stressed the vitality and creativity of the Romans' religious system throughout its long history of continual adaptation to new challenges. Capitalising on these insights, Denis Feeney argues that Roman literature was not an artificial or parasitic irrelevance in this context, but an important element of the dynamic religious culture, with its own status as another form of religious knowledge. Since Roman culture, both literary and religious, was so thoroughly Hellenised, the book also makes a case for a reconsideration of the traditional antitheses between Greek and Roman literature and religion, arguing against Hellenocentric prejudices and in favour of a more creative model of cultural interaction.

Book Lines of Enquiry

    Book Details:
  • Author : Niall Rudd
  • Publisher : Cambridge University Press
  • Release : 2005-01-20
  • ISBN : 9780521611862
  • Pages : 232 pages

Download or read book Lines of Enquiry written by Niall Rudd and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2005-01-20 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In these studies of Latin poetry Niall Rudd demonstrates a variety of critical methods and approaches. He shows how it can be fruitful at different times to consider the historical background of a poem, its language or structure, its place in a literary tradition, the role of critical paradigms, and so on. But if no single approach has special and invariable authority this does not imply critical anarchy. Each has its own validity for different purposes, its own strengths and limitations. The reader must be versatile and sensitive to a range of possibilities, but not doctrinaire.
