Summary

Franz Cumont: Eastern religions in Roman paganism

In the second century after Christ, the influence of Eastern cults - Egyptian, Semitic and Iranian - grew in the Latin provinces of the Roman Empire. The mysteries of Isis, Serapis, Cybele and Attis, the Syrian Baals, Sabazis and Mithras supplanted the gods of the Greco-Roman pantheon, submerging the rites and concepts of the strict Roman "civil" religious system in an emotional and lavish flood of ceremonial and initiation rites imbued with fantastic mythological content. What reasons led to this spiritual upheaval and what circumstances enabled such a change, the outcome of which was the triumph of Christianity? This question, of crucial importance for the history of religions and for the precise determination of the origins of Western civilization, is at the center of this now classic work by Franz Cumont.
Cumont shows the considerable influence of the East on Rome in various areas, especially in the sphere of religion, through the spread of cults originating from Asia Minor, Syria, Egypt and Persia. According to his opinion, they brought a new spirituality that transformed the old Roman public religion into a kind of henotheism, paving the way for Christianity along paths intertwined with magic: the mystical currents of Platonism, riddles about destiny and the solitary figure of the "unknown" God of the Jews and Christians.
