- W4210454797 abstract "This introduction presents an overview of the key concepts discussed in the subsequent chapters of this book. The book seeks to show how in various civilizations such questions were put, and how the answers, which we call oracles, were transmitted and interpreted. With a single exception, it is originated in a series of lectures delivered in Cambridge University in 1979. The book draws on a wide variety of types of evidence: relics of the practice itself such as inscribed bones or the clay models of livers; painted vases; literary records of questions put and answers given; manuals used for guidance and instruction; critical essays by sceptics like Cicero and lampoons of satyrists such as Aristophanes. It describes the phenomenon noted by Plutarch in the 1st century A.D., the decline of the oracles." @default.
