        Divinations: Rereading Late Ancient Religion

        The series seeks to extend and reframe scholarship on Mediterranean cultures in the late Roman imperial period through a focus on religion and an openness to innovative approaches that challenge traditional disciplinary boundaries. Judaism, Islam, Iranian religion, and the variety of local cults, as well as Christianity and Greco-Roman religions are understood as all equally significant to the inquiry. In addition, Divinations encourages scholarship that interrogates the very category of religion as applied to the late ancient Mediterranean world. The series is closed to new submissions.
