Les Communautes Religieuses Dans Le Monde Greco-Romain

This group of seventeen essays looks at religious communities in the Greco-Roman world asking what marked these communities, why they were formed and how they functioned. The authors take a variety of approaches and case studies, from expatriate cities and communities in the Roman empire to synagogues and cities in Asia Minor, from religious communities in Roman Galilee, to concepts of baptism and the resurrection of the dead. French text, short English summaries.
