Auteur: Humphreys, S.C. (University Professor at Central European University, Budapest)
Editeur: Oxford University Press
Gods are supernatural, and strange. Human attempts to understand them are entangled with the effort to understand all human experience. In contrast to the long-standing dismissal of religion as conservative and traditionalistic, S. C. Humphreys argues that ancient Athenians thought about their rites as well as celebrating them.
