Issu du colloque réuni à l'Université de Liège les 20-21 juin 2018, 150 ans après que Franz Cumont eut reçu de quelque divinité orientale son heureux thème de géniture, cet ouvrage se donne deux objectifs : souligner l'importance de l'historien belge dans le développement d'une approche historique de l'astrologie ; apporter des éclairages sur quelques paradoxes et ambiguïtés dans les relations entre astrologie, astrologues et pouvoir impérial. La première partie contribue à expliquer pourquoi une science aussi suspecte que l'astrologie intéressa autant l'historien des religions qu'était Franz Cumont, en situant ses recherches astrologiques dans l'économie générale de son œuvre et dans l'évolution de sa pensée, puis en mettant en lumière, à travers sa correspondance, son importante entreprise du Catalogus Codicum Astrologorum Graecorum. La deuxième partie évalue le poids paradoxal des signes astrologiques et des astrologues à la cour des empereurs romains : pour quelles raisons les historiens romains exploitèrent-ils si peu les potentialités esthétiques, dramatiques et symboliques des prédictions astrales ? pourquoi le recours aux horoscopes et aux autres signes astrologiques était-il toujours à double tranchant, aussi bien pour les empereurs et les 'destinés au pouvoir' que pour les opposants ? était-ce réellement à sa qualité d'expert que Thrasylle, ± l'astrologue de Tibère ? selon Franz Cumont, devait son influence à la cour impériale ? La troisième partie interroge les contextes dans lesquels des astrologues furent expulsés et les pratiques astrologiques condamnées par le pouvoir impérial : dans quelles circonstances les auteurs anciens évoquent-ils ces condamnations ? les bannissements collectifs des astrologues s'articulent-ils à un schéma répressif récurrent à partir de la mise en place du régime impérial ? Autant de raisons de s'attarder, après Franz Cumont, sur quelques ± sottises astrologiques ? des empereurs romains, dont l'attachement à l'astrologie est une réalité historique fascinante.

To the practical modern mind, the idea of divine prophecy is more ludicrous than sublime. Yet to our cultural forebears in ancient Greece and Rome, prophecy was anything but marginal; it was in fact the basic medium for recalling significant past events and expressing hopes for the future, and it offered assurance that divinities truly cared about mere mortals. Prophecy also served political ends, and it was often invoked to support or condemn an emperor's actions. In Prophets and Emperors, David Potter shows us how prophecy worked, how it could empower, and how the diverse inhabitants of the Roman Empire used it to make sense of their world. This is a fascinating account of prophecy as a social, religious, and political phenomenon. The various systems of prophecy--including sacred books, oracles, astrological readings, interpretation of dreams, the sayings of holy men and women--come into sharp relief. Potter explores the use of prophecy as a nieans of historical analysis and political communication, and he describes it in the context of the ancient city. Finally, he traces the reformation of the prophetic tradition under the influence of Christianity in the fourth century. Drawing on diverse evidence--from inscriptions and ancient prophetic books to Greek and Roman historians and the Bible--Potter has produced a study that will engage anyone interested in the religions of the ancient Mediterranean and in the history and politics of the Roman Empire.
