    Resumen del libro

    The theoretical premise that provides the starting point for this study, that is the assumptions that, in the ancient world: 1) people were not equally religious; 2) religion was not just restricted to a fixed and largely standardized set of institutionalized practices, uncriti-cally accepted and mechanically reproduced by an established (urban as well as rural) community, but was also a resource available to self-styled bricoleurs; 3) accordingly, individual actors constantly elaborated strategies of religious appropriation by, on the one hand, reproducing schemas belonging to past habits while, on the other, reconfiguring them in response to emerging (historically variable) present situations and future aspirations; 4) the heterogeneous spaces in which these social networks were embedded were highly individualized “lived places” in which environment, human/ animal beings, and “social goods” relentlessly interacted; 5) finally, and consequently, “[a]ctors who are positioned in complex matrices of political, economic, and religious relations and differently structured networks (e.g. cities and metropoles) can develop greater capacities for creative and critical intervention, while a smaller availability of cultural resources (e.g. in countryside and outskirts) can inhibit actors’ ability to build new creative trajectories of action and revert the agentic action to more routinized (eventually local) patterns. Group-styles of religious gathering in cities can deeply differ from those taking place in non-urban contexts”.
