This handbook offers both students and teachers of ancient Greek
religion a comprehensive overview of the current state of scholarship on
ancient Greek religion from the Archaic, Classical, and Hellenistic
periods. Each chapter provides not only key information about its
subject but also reflection on the developments in the scholarship in
that area, with a special focus on current problems and debates. The
range of contributions emphasizes the diversity of relationships between
mortals and the supernatural in all their manifestations, embracing
both ‘religion’ and ‘magic’, from across, between, and beyond ancient
Greek cultures. It draws attention to religious activities as dynamic,
highlighting how they changed over time, place, and context. The general
overview of topics is supplemented by tangible case studies, making
this handbook an indispensable tool for further study.
