1 1 Ancient Greek Religion HIST 7106 Spring term 2010 Modern reading on ten topics, preceded by a general bibliography; ancient material in translation will be distributed at the lectures. Course description: this is an introductory course on ancient Greek religion, a basic understanding of which is essential for the study both of Greek history and of Greek literature (especially but not only poetry - epic, tragedy and the poetry of Pindar). But in this area the ancient literary sources take much for granted, so that we need to go to inscriptions for some of the material; translations of relevant texts (literary and inscriptional) will be provided where appropriate. The course will concentrate on primary evidence, but modern anthropological and comparative work will be exploited as well: Greek religion is a 'growth area' at present and some of the most exciting work being done in classical studies is on Greek religion broadly defined. There will be ten weekly classes of one and a half hours each. Topics covered will be: - preliminaries - introduction to Greek religion: concepts; sources; religion and society - the gods - heroes and heroization - festivals and sanctuaries - sacrifice - prophecy, oracles and divination; necromancy; curses - myth - afterlife beliefs - post-classical developments including ruler-cult.
2 2 Practical details The teacher will be Simon Hornblower office hours Monday and Thursday 3-4), and the classes will be held in History department room 114 (26, Gordon Sq, Thursdays from 11 till or a little after, starting Thursday 14 th January (No class Thursday February 18 th : Reading Week). The format will usually be as follows: the first minutes will be spent discussing the printed assignment which was distributed in the previous week, and which will be concerned with that (i. e. the previous) week s lecture topic. Then there will be a 5-10 min. break. The rest of the session will take the form of a lecture by me. That is, we will cover two different topics every week, one as an assignment, one as a lecture. Obviously, week 1 will be different because there is no assignment. No knowledge of Greek (or Latin) is required. Class-specific lecture handouts (in addition to this, the Introductory handout and week-by-week bibliography) will be given out every week, and these will translate all Greek. There are two pamphlet boxes in the History departmental office, containing a total of c. 50 items. These are signalled below (pamphlet no. 00). They are for borrowing and immediate return after copying. Assessment will be by two essays totalling 5000 words, on topics taken from the essay question sheet provided at class 1. In addition, those taking the course will be expected to contribute actively to discussion of assignments when asked. (There will be no formal presentations). Essay 1 should be handed in to the History departmental office for stamping on the first day after the end of Reading Week, i.e. by 5 p.m. on Monday February 22 nd. Essay 2 should be given in by 5 p.m. on Friday March 19 h, i.e. the last day of term. Essays should be double-spaced, in 12-point text. It is not acceptable to send essays by attachment, partly because they need (in your own interests) to be stamped as having been received.] General bibliography The best book-length introduction is S. Price, Religions of the Ancient Greeks (ask yourselves: why 'religions' in the plural?) (paperback). But for an excellent very short introductory account see R. Parker, Greek Religion in J. Boardman, J. Griffin and O. Murray (eds.) Oxford History of the Classical World (1986) ch. 11. See also J. Gould, 'On making sense of Greek Religion' in P. Easterling and J. V. Muir (eds.) Greek Religion and Society (1985) 1-33 = Gould, Myth, Ritual, Memory and Exchange (2001) ch. 7 (pamphlet no. 13); E. Kearns, Order, Interaction, Authority:
3 3 Ways of Looking at Greek Religion, in A. Powell (ed.) The Greek World (1995) (pamphlet no. 18) and Religious Practice and Belief in K. Kinzl (ed.) Companion to the Classical Greek World (2006), ch. 15; and R. Parker, Law and Religion in M. Gagarin and D. Cohen (eds.) Cambridge Companion to Greek Law (2005) (pamphlet no. 28). J. Mikalson, Ancient Greek Religion (2005). R. Garland, Religion and the Greeks (1994) is a very simple introduction. There is plenty about ancient Greek religion in S. I. Johnston (ed.) Religions of the Ancient World: a Guide (2004); see esp. the thematic section at pp. 243 onwards, where different authorities treat topics like sacrifice, divination, rites of passage, sin pollution and purity, each in more or less the same order, starting with Egypt and ending with Greece, Etruria, Rome and Christianity. Other useful and authoritative general books are: - J. Bremmer, Greek Religion: Greece and Rome New Surveys in the Classics no. 24 (1994, reprinted with addenda 1999). Short and cheap - L. Bruit Zaidman and P. Schmitt Pantel, Religion in the Ancient Greek City (tr. P. Cartledge, Cambridge 1992). - W. Burkert, Greek Religion (tr. W. Raffan, Oxford 1985), a superb reference book, but also very readable. The specific bibliographies below do not normally give extracts from the above general books, but you should always consult these. For instance, the section on priests (week 2) does not refer specifically to Burkert s Greek Religion but pp of that book are important. In addition, note that Buxton refers to a valuable collection of articles on Greek religion, R. Buxton (ed.) Oxford Readings in Greek Religion (2000). Some chapters have appendixes up-dating the originals. There are many excellent articles on Greek religion and myth, including entries on particular gods, in S. Hornblower and A. Spawforth (eds.) Oxford Classical Dictionary 3 (1996), abbrev. OCD 3. Some particularly helpful and/or academically outstanding entries are those on 'religion, Greek' (E. Kearns), 'pollution, the Greek concept of' and 'sacrifice, Greek' (both R. C. T. Parker), 'Apollo' (F. Graf), 'Dionysus' (A. Henrichs). E. Kearns and S. Price, Oxford Dictionary of Classical Religion and Myth (2003, paperback 2004) is a cheap-format reference book containing the main OCD 3 entries
4 4 on Greek and Roman religion/myth. D. Ogden, ed. Blackwell Companion to Greek Religion (2007) has useful individual chapters, referred to below; abbrev. Ogden. J. Larson, Ancient Greek Cults: a Guide (2007) is a useful introduction, arranged roughly god by god; mainly derivative. Translated sourcebooks: E. Kearns, Ancient Greek Religion (2010), abbrev. Kearns, and referred to by section nos.; S. Instone, Greek Personal Religion: A Reader (2009). Note that much of the best evidence for many important aspects of Greek religion is epigraphic i.e. drawn from inscriptions, so that translated sourcebooks are essential as an accompaniment to translations of literary texts like Herodotus or Pindar. See further week 2 below, end of section. Week 1: Preliminaries general handouts given out, include. essay topics. Scope of lectures (post-homer to post-alexander). What I aim to do.

Pretzler, Pausanias: Travel Writing in Ancient Greece (2007) ch. 2 Inscriptions: Inscriptions ( epigraphic evidence) will be much used in the course of the term and I do not know of one single study in English which pulls together and discusses the epigraphic evidence for religion. J. Rives, Civic and religious life in J. Bodel (ed.) Epigraphic evidence: ancient history from inscriptions (2001) is short but may be found useful. You should think for yourself during the course about the way we use inscriptions. For a very good, largely inscription-based, study of one interesting aspect of Greek religion (personal names) see R. Parker, Theophoric Names and the History of Greek Religion in S. Hornblower and E. Matthews (eds.) Greek Personal Names: their Value as Evidence (2000) (but on the phantom god Mandros, supposedly attested only in inscriptions, see P. Thonemann, Chiron 2006). P. J. Rhodes and R. G. Osborne, Greek Historical Inscriptions BC (2003) translate and comment fully on many C4 BC Greek inscriptions of religious importance; note e.g. no. 1, the Labyadai decree from Delphi. On sacred laws, see R. Parker What are Sacred Laws? in E. Harris and L. Rubinstein (eds.) The Law and the Courts in Ancient Greece (2004) (pamphlet no. 26) and Law and Religion, in M. Gagarin and E.
