Reviews
"The organization of this useful volume invites dipping into rather than a linear perusal. The contributors ... manage to be both informative and fair in their presentation of controversial issues, and blessedly jargon free." ( Religious Studies Review , December 2009) "This collection of essays is a welcome addition to the existing books on Greek religion. Both advanced students and scholars will find it a useful introduction to the state of research on the subject." ( Acta Classica , 2009) "A splendid book at a not unreasonable price." ( Reference Reviews , 2008) "Modestly aiming to offer a mere impression of such a vast field, and eschewing any specific intellectual agenda, Daniel Ogden has done an excellent job both in defining major topics for discussion and in commissioning a varied list of contributors, senior and junior, European and North American, classicists, archaeologists, and historians of religion. ... Ogden has done in excellent job." ( Greece and Rome , 2008) "The Companion to Greek Religion is overall an excellent package of the best and most interesting research in Greek religion." ( Scholia Reviews, 2008) "Blackwell Companions have well-established reference potential defined by the breadth of scholarly perspectives presented. This volume offers ... well-documented narrations, along with cross-referencing between them." ( CHOICE ) "Covers all aspects of religion in the ancient Greek world. ... Each of the volume's essays is written by an international expert." ( Wordtrade.com ) "Blackwell maintains the high standard of its Companion series with these twenty seven essays. ... All in all, [there is] much excellent material here." ( Journal of Classics Teaching )
