The Morality Of Mithraism

By Salomon Reinach

Book Overview

The Morality of Mithraism is a book written by Salomon Reinach that explores the religious and moral beliefs of the ancient Roman religion of Mithraism. The book examines the origins of Mithraism, its rituals and practices, and its influence on the moral and ethical values of Roman society. Reinach argues that Mithraism was a highly moralistic religion that placed great emphasis on personal responsibility, self-discipline, and the pursuit of virtue. He also explores the relationship between Mithraism and Christianity, and suggests that the two religions may have influenced each other in significant ways. The book is a fascinating exploration of an ancient religion that has largely been forgotten, and sheds new light on the moral and ethical values of the Roman world.THIS 24 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Cults, Myths and Religions, by Salomon Reinach.
