SUMMARY

In his study of the Greek cults of the Roman emperor in Asia minor, Simon Price attempts to discover why the Roman Emperor was treated like a god. He contends that ever since the emergence of Christianity within the Roman Empire the problem has been misinterpreted; a Christianizing distinction between religion and politics has led to the cult being considered simply as a form of political honours.Price, S. R. is the author of 'Rituals and Power: The Roman Imperial Cult in Asia Minor - S. R. F. Price - Hardcover' with ISBN 9780521259033 and ISBN 0521259037.
