Daily religious devotion in the Greek and Roman worlds centered on the family and the home. Besides official worship in rural sacred areas and at temples in towns, the ancients kept household shrines with statuettes of different deities that could have a deep personal and spiritual meaning. Roman houses were oftenfilled with images of gods. Gods and goddesses were represented in mythological paintings on walls and in decorative mosaics on floors, in bronze and marble sculptures, on ornate silver dining vessels, and on lowly clay oil lamps that lit dark rooms. Even many modest homes had one or more religious objects that were privately venerated. Ranging from the humble to the magnificent, these small objects could be fashioned in any medium from terracotta to precious metal or stone.Showcasing the collections in the Getty Villa, this book’s emphasis on the spiritual beliefs and practices of individuals promises to make the works of Greek and Roman art more accessible to readers. Compelling representations of private religious devotion, these small objects express personal ways of worshiping that are still familiar to us today. A chapter on contemporary domestic worship further enhances the relevance of these miniature sculptures for modern viewers.

Comment les Romains pratiquaient ils leur religion, ou plutôt leurs religions au quotidien ? Comment vénéraient-ils leurs dieux ? Quels rites, en particulier au moment des funérailles, observaient-ils ? Quelle place accordaient-ils à la magie. Comment les pratiques rituelles ont-elles varié d'un bout à l'autre de l'Empire romain ou au fil des siècles ? Le terme de « religion romaine » recouvre des réalités morcelées. Elle comprend en effet la religion d'État, celle des mille et une cités de l'Empire et, enfin, les innombrables cultes privés, ceux des familles et des associations sociales. Si les deux premières, mieux attestées, ont été abondamment étudiées et commentées, les religions privées ont été longtemps négligées. John Scheid, professeur émérite au Collège de France, éclaire d'un jour nouveau ce domaine méconnu, en s'appuyant sur les découvertes archéologiques les plus récentes ainsi que sur des sources littéraires riches et variées. Mais ce livre magistral permet également de méditer les mutations du fait religieux au sein de nos sociétés contemporaines. Une synthèse inédite et passionnante, par l'un des plus grands spécialistes de la Rome antique.
