Henley on Thames, 1980 -- Additions and Corrections -- General Index -- Index of Selected Mithraic Monuments -- Index of Selected Texts. - PREFACE: All but one of the nine essays collected in this volume explore a rather ill-defined no-man’s-land between archaeology on the one hand and aspects of Graeco-Roman religion on the other. For many, such a no-man’s-land does not exist, since the two disciplines simply complement one another. For me too the monuments are the indispensable starting-point of any enquiry. But whereas others are most interested in using archaeological monuments singly or in series as illustrations or commentaries on beliefs or practices known from texts, taking the existence of both monument and cult for granted, as a lapsed Scottish Presbyterian with a particular fondness for Roman Catholic religious art I have always had more of an eye for the place of religious art in the construction of the religious enterprise than for the Realien of religious belief. This focus upon the how of religious belief rather than its matter owes something to David Martin, whose seminar at the London School of Economics I attended occasionally in 1966-67. At that time there was a vogue for a primitive version of constructionism, and I vividly remember the high hopes I had on opening a book on The Social Construction of Reality by Peter Berger and Thomas Luckmann, and how swiftly they were dashed. But if ‘reality’ itself could not possibly be socially constructed as they claimed, it seemed to me no less certainly the case that religion was, if not ‘socially’ constructed (whatever that might mean), at least an enterprise of the human imagination, one of whose major features was the objectivity - reality in that sense - it claimed for itself. It is not that I am indifferent to the possible emotional meanings of religion but that these seem to me purely superficial matters as far as the historian of religion is concerned - so obvious that they do not require discussion. Above all, they do not exhaust the possible implications of the notion ‘religious meaning’. ISBN 9780860786085 Versand D: 5,50 EUR, Angelegt am: 30.06.2021.
