The papers here collected were written over a long period, from my contributions to CISA as a student of Sordi's Perfezionamento in Storia Antica (preparing my dissertation on Herodotus with Bianchi) to two contributions to Convegni, written up to 2004, but published 2006 and 2009. More specific contributions, already discussed, on Polytheism stand out as a topic still live for me. Some major élan have the first two long papers, on potere religioso in Grecia e a Roma and Evoluzione diacronica della religione greca.
