Sommario/riassunto |
|
This book proposes to study Spiritism as a religious system, a system of beliefs and practices that is included in the larger picture of mediumistic religions. Based on the selection of specific groups, its central objective is to apprehend and discuss the categories and representations that constitute this religious experience and the cultural values related to it. In this perspective, the perception of the construction of the notion of person in Spiritism presents itself as a guiding thread and as a particularly enlightening clue to the experience of trance and mediumship in this religion. |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
In this bold new interpretation of the origins of ancient Rome's overseas empire, Dr Burton charts the impact of the psychology, language and gestures associated with the Roman concept of amicitia, or 'friendship'. The book challenges the prevailing orthodox Cold War-era realist interpretation of Roman imperialism and argues that language and ideals contributed just as much to Roman empire-building as military muscle. Using a constructivist theoretical |

framework drawn from international relations, Dr Burton replaces the modern scholarly fiction of a Roman empire built on networks of foreign clients and client-states with an interpretation grounded firmly in the discursive habits of the ancient texts themselves. The results better account for the peculiar rhythms of Rome's earliest period of overseas expansion - brief periods of vigorous military and diplomatic activity, such as the rolling back of Seleucid power in Asia Minor and Greece in 192-188 BC, followed by long periods of inactivity. |
