In this wide-ranging work on Greek religion and mythology Jan N. Bremmer brings together his stimulating and innovative articles which have all been updated and revised where necessary. In three thematic sections he analyses central aspects of Greek religion beginning with the gods and heroes and paying special attention to the unity of the divine nature and the emergence of the category 'hero'. The second section begins with a discussion of the nature of polis religion continues with various facets such as seers secrecy and the soul and concludes with the influence of the Ancient Near East. The third section studies human sacrifice and offers the most recent analysis of the ideal animal sacrifice combining literature epigraphy iconography and zooarchaeology. Regarding human sacrifice it concentrates on the famous cases of Iphigeneia and the werewolves of Mount Lykaion. The fourth and final section investigates key elements of Greek mythology such as the definition of myth and its relationship to ritual and ends with a brief history of the study of Greek mythology. The multi-disciplinary approach and rich footnotes make this work a must for anybody interested in Greek religion and mythology.
