Robert Parker, Wykeham Professor emeritus of Ancient History at Oxford, is one of the leading contemporary experts on ancient Greek religion, as demonstrated by the various monographs he has published on the subject. Alongside books such as Polytheism and Society at Athens (2005), On Greek Religion (2011) and Greek Gods Abroad (2017), he has written dozens of articles that enrich his contribution to this field of study. The most important of them are here collected, with an updated afterword when necessary. The four headings that divide them up bear witness to their author?s ongoing concerns: Religion and Society, Divination, Sacrifice, and the close relationship between Gods and their Names. The collection ends with the outrageous ?small god? Priapos, who stood in image form in gardens and threatened thieves with a dire punishment inflicted by his giant phallos.
