Lewis Richard Farnell's The Cults of the Greek States, first published between 1896 & 1909, disentangles classical Greek mythology & religion, since the latter had often been overlooked by 19th-century English scholars. Farnell describes the cults of the most significant Greek gods in order to establish their zones of influence, & outlines the personality, monuments, & ideal types associated with each deity. He also resolutely avoids the question of divine origins & focuses instead on the culture surrounding each cult, a position which initially drew some criticism, but which allowed him more space to analyse the religious practices themselves. Written to facilitate a comparative approach to Greek gods, his work is still regularly cited today for its impressive collection of data about the worship of the most popular deities.
