L’ironie d’un Caton s’étonnant qu’un haruspice ne rit pas quand il rencontre un autre haruspice dissimule l’importance et la variété du recours romain à des praticiens qui savaient connaître les sentiments des dieux à travers l’interprétation des foudres, des foies des victimes de sacrifices et des prodiges. Ce livre s’intéresse à l’emprunt et à l’utilisation de la divination d’origine étrusque dans le monde romain, des origines jusqu’au vie siècle p.C. Il entreprend de montrer quand, comment et pourquoi les Romains ont intégré les haruspices dans leur religion publique et privée. Il décrit les modalités historiques, les conséquences sociales et les implications religieuses de cette intégration d’une divination au départ étrangère. The irony of someone like Cato surprised that an haruspex did not laugh when he met another haruspex conceals the importance and the diversity of Roman recourse to officials who could tell the feelings of the gods through the interpretation of thunders, entrails of the victims of sacrifices and prodigies. This book deals with the divination of Etruscan origin being used and applied in the Roman world, from the beginning to the sixth century A.D. It attempts to show when how and why the Romans have integrated the haruspices in their private and public religion. It describes the historical modes, the social consequences and the religious implications of integrating such divination, which came originally from abroad.

This book explores how recent findings and research provide a richer understanding of religious activities in Republican Rome and contemporary central Italic societies, including the Etruscans, during the period of the Middle and Late Republic. While much recent research has focused on the Romanization of areas outside Italy in later periods, this volume investigates religious aspects of the Romanization of the Italian peninsula itself. The essays strive to integrate literary evidence with archaeological and epigraphic material as they consider the nexus of religion and politics in early Italy; the impact of Roman institutions and practices on Italic society; the reciprocal impact of non-Roman practices and institutions on Roman custom; and the nature of 'Roman', as opposed to 'Latin', 'Italic', or 'Etruscan', religion in the period in question. The resulting volume illuminates many facets of religious praxis in Republican Italy, while at the same time complicating the categories we use to discuss it.

"This volume explores the nature of religious change in the Greek-speaking cities of the Roman Empire. Emphasis is put on those developments that apparently were not the direct result of Roman actions: the intensification of idiosyncratically Greek features in the religious life of the cities (Heller, Muñiz, Camia); the active role of a new kind of Hellenism in the design of imperial religious policies (Gordillo, Galimberti, Rosillo-López); or the locally different responses to central religious initiatives, and the influence of those local responses in other imperial contexts (Cortés, Melfi, Lozano, Rizakis). All the chapters try to suggest that religion in the Greek cities of the empire was both conservative and innovative, and that the 'Roman factor' helps to explain this apparent paradox. Contributors are: Francesco Camia, Juan Manuel Cortés Copete, Alessandro Galimberti, Rocío Gordillo Hervás, Anne Heller, Fernando Lozano Gómez, Milena Melfi, Elena Muñiz Grijalvo, Athanasios Rizakis, Cristina Rosillo-López"--Provided by publisher.
