La religione romana...

La moderna pratica della religione dei Romani, il cultus Deorum Romanorum è un tentativo di ricostruire la religione degli antichi Romani, il più strettamente possibile. Il cultus Deorum Romanorum, non può essere affrontato con l'inserimento di nomi di divinità romana in greco religione o qualsiasi altro sistema, perché è un prodotto unico della cultura che lo ha creato. Si richiede costanza, dedizione al dovere e di lavoro, in armonia con la divinità eterna e universale con ordine, per il bene non solo di noi stessi, ma anche il mondo intorno a noi. Con diritto di azione e gli atteggiamenti verso la divinità, sia lo Stato e il singolo prospererà. Eppure, la cultus deorum coinvolge più di pietà e di azione potere mondano; ci sono anche le tradizioni mistero che si concentrano sulla crescita spirituale interiore.

Cultus Deorum in Roma Antiqua

The Cultus Deorum Romanorum is the pre-Christian religion of Rome. It began as the practices of the farmers of the village of Rome.

"I am quite certain that Romulus by instituting auspices, and Numa ritual, laid the foundations of our state, which would never have been able to be so great had not the immortal gods been placated to the utmost extent." -- Cicero "On the Nature of the Gods"
Influenced by their Etruscan (and later, Greek) neighbors, the Romans developed a complex state religion that emphasised duty to the gods and serving them through exactly prescribed rituals.

Cultus Deorum in Nova Roma

Sometimes called "Roman Paganism", the modern practice of the Cultus Deorum Romanorum is an attempt to reconstruct the ancient religion of the Romans as closely as possible, making as few concessions to modern sensibilities as possible. As with other forms of historical reconstructionist paganism, every attempt is made to rely on actual historical and archaeological evidence, and interpolations are made only when the primary sources are silent, and then we strive to be consistent with them. [1] When gaps in the evidence, or the realities of modern life, make it necessary to create something new it should be:

  • as consistent as possible with what we do know about the classical-era Romans and their legacy.
  • clearly presented as a recent innovation. We frown on attempts to advertise something modern and invented as ancient and historical in order to give it an authority (and marketability!) it does not deserve.

Starting with the Cultus Deorum today

Because of the principles of reconstructionism, almost everything that can be said about the historical cultus is also true about the modern cultus. The articles on the cultus deorum in Roma antiqua and our "Reading list for the cultus deorum" are a good places to start.
