Summary:
L’ironie d’un Caton s’étonnant qu’un haruspice ne rit pas quand il rencontre un autre haruspice dissimule l’importance et la variété du recours romain à des praticiens qui savaient connaître les sentiments des dieux à travers l’interprétation des foudres, des foies des victimes de sacrifices et des prodiges. Ce livre s’intéresse à l’emprunt et à l’utilisation de la divination d’origine étrusque dans le monde romain, des origines jusqu’au vie siècle p.C. Il entreprend de montrer quand, comment et pourquoi les Romains ont intégré les haruspices dans leur religion publique et privée. Il décrit les modalités historiques, les conséquences sociales et les implications religieuses de cette intégration d’une divination au départ étrangère. The irony of someone like Cato surprised that an haruspex did not laugh when he met another haruspex conceals the importance and the diversity of Roman recourse to officials who could tell the feelings of the gods through the interpretation of thunders, entrails of the victims of sacrifices and prodigies. This book deals with the divination of Etruscan origin being used and applied in the Roman world, from the beginning to the sixth century A.D. It attempts to show when how and why the Romans have integrated the haruspices in their private and public religion. It describes the historical modes, the social consequences and the religious implications of integrating such divination, which came originally from abroad.
