Replacing older models of an Orphic religion, this richer and more complex model provides insight into the boundaries of normal and abnormal Greek religion. The study traces the construction of the category of 'Orphic' from its first appearances in the Classical period, through the centuries of philosophical and religious polemics, especially in the formation of early Christianity and again in the debates over the origins of Christianity in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. A paradigm shift in the study of Greek religion, this study provides scholars of classics, early Christianity, ancient religion and philosophy with a new model for understanding the nature of ancient Orphism, including ideas of afterlife, cosmogony, sacred scriptures, rituals of purification and initiation, and exotic mythology. 606 $aDionysia 606 $aCults$zGreece 615 0$aDionysia. 615 0$aCults 676 $a292.9 700 $aEdmonds$b Radcliffe G.$cIII,$f1970-$01050705 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910453226803321 996 $aRedefining ancient Orphism$92480733 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03177nam 2200697Ia 450 001 9910782384903321 005 20230607222306.0 010 $a1-281-84180-3 010 $a9786611841805 010 $a0-567-19417-5 035 $a(CKB)1000000000542353 035 $a(EBL)436713 035 $a(OCoLC)277006090 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000252966 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)12093096 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000252966 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10185849 035 $a(PQKB)10003572 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC436713 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL436713 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10250613 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL184180 035 $a(OCoLC)893334381 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000542353 100 $a20010905d2001 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 00$aStudies in the archaeology of the Iron Age in Israel and Jordan$b[electronic resource] /$fedited by Amihai Mazar ; with the assistance of Ginny Mathias 210 $aSheffield, England $cSheffield Academic Press$dc2001 215 $a1 online resource (345 p.) 225 1 $aJournal for the study of the Old Testament.
