Free Download Christopher A. Faraone, "Greek and Roman Animal Sacrifice: Ancient Victims, Modern Observers"
English | ISBN: 1107011124 | 2012 | 224 pages | PDF | 8 MB
The interpretation of animal sacrifice, now considered the most important ancient Greek and Roman religious ritual, has long been dominated by the views of Walter Burkert, the late J.-P. Vernant, and Marcel Detienne. No penetrating and general critique of their views has appeared and, in particular, no critique of the application of these views to Roman religion.

This book, a collection of essays by leading scholars, incorporates all these subjects and provides a theoretical background for the study of animal sacrifice in an ancient context.
