Publisher's Synopsis

In this volume, Dr Gordon examines the way in which images contributed to the creation of religious meanings in the Graeco-Roman world. Special attention is paid to Mithraism's notion of sacred space, its use of metaphors taken from the natural world, and its ideals of social action.
