Description

This scholarly volume from Brill Academic Publishers brings together essays from leading experts examining magic and ritual power across ancient civilizations. Contributors specialise in Egyptology, ancient Near Eastern studies, the Hebrew Bible, Judaica, classical Greek and Roman studies, early Christianity, patristics, and Coptology. The collection critically explores how ancient societies understood and employed magical practices, clarifying magic as both a polemical term of exclusion and a genuine cultural phenomenon. Each essay investigates the terminology used in ancient magical descriptions, offering fresh perspectives on Egyptian and early Greek conceptions of supernatural power. This volume 129 in the Religions in the Graeco-Roman World series provides rigorous academic analysis for scholars, students, and readers interested in how ancient cultures conceptualised the sacred, the divine, and practices existing at the boundaries of religious orthodoxy.
