Customer Reviews
Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - No other book offers as much as Burkert's Greek Religion!
This is the single most comprehensive book on Greek Religion available. It covers almost every aspect of Greek popular religion, as well as those often neglected areas. Burkert allows us to compare both Olympian, Chthonic and Social religions in an almost inexhaustible array of information and sources. For all its subject matter, this book is more than just a beginners' text, being highly academic and detailed.

If you can only ever buy one book on the subject, then make sure it is this one!


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A standard text for students of Greek Religion
Burkert is one of the foremost scholars on Greek Religion, and this book is a fantastic foundation for people of all levels of knowledge, from beginner to graduate student. He covers important concepts, such as organization, sacrifice, and the pantheon, as well as regional and chronological variations. His book _Ancient_Mystery_Cults_ is also fantastic! Both books are great places to start your research into this subject and are invaluable reference tools for those of us in graduate school.
