ABBREVIATIONS

ABBREVIATIONS OF ANCIENT AUTHORS generally orbit the format of the Oxford Classical Dictionary,4 with some idiosyncratic variations. With the exception of authors included in FGH and FRHistfor which see belowI cite fragmentary authors from their standard or most recent editions, designating the edition used by supplying the name of the editor after the fragment number. (Thus, for example, Warmington = Remains of Old Latin; but I abbreviate Lindsays 1913 edition of Festus simply as L.). When citing fragments from books 1420 of Dionysius of Halicarnassuss Roman Antiquities, I follow the alphanumeric scheme of Sylvie Pittias 2002 edition. Please also note:

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

ON A WRETCHEDLY RAINY OXFORD DAY in January 2007, Martin Goodman set Why did Greeks, Romans, and Jews build temples? as the prompt for my second tutorial paper. Later that same year, when I encountered and devoured Anna Clarks Divine Qualities over coffee at Blackwells, the seeds for this project were planted. (The title of this book is an expression of my debts to Clarks scholarship, and not just a nod to Lactantius.) At Stanford, these seeds began to germinate, and I renew my thanks both to the dissertation committee that nurtured some promising first growths while whacking the weedsWalter Scheidel, Ian Morris, Josiah Ober, and Jennifer Trimbleand the Stanford Interdisciplinary Graduate Fellowship for its steady infusion of greenbacks. Since 2014, Walter Scheidel has continued to nudge and guide, not least of all by introducing me to the work of Seth Richardson when I was struggling to recast the manuscript. On a return trip to Stanford in February 2016 to present the project as it was sloughing off its old skin, Matthieu Abgrall and Josiah Ober peppered me with edifying questions, several of which took me in new directions.

The manuscript was refined and my frames of reference expanded during two delightful years at Columbia Universitys Society of Fellows. For conversation, encouragement, and lynx-eyed attention to work-in-progress, I thank Ben Breen, Christopher Brown, Maggie Cao, Eileen Gillooly, Brian Goldstone, Mara Gonzlez Pends, David Gutkin, Hidetaka Hirota, Murad Idris, Carmel Raz, Rebecca Woods, and Grant Wythoff. Columbias Classics Department signed off on my designs to teach Roman religion and supported me in all sorts of ways: thanks to Marcus Folch, Joseph Howley, Deborah Steiner, Katharina Volk, Gareth Williams, and Jim Zetzel. During my time at the Society, friends at other institutionsEmilia Barbiero, Seth Bernard, and Amy Richlingave feedback on portions of the manuscript. Although I have not always been wise enough to heed their recommendations, the book would be much poorer without them.

Since I joined the Princeton faculty in fall 2016, the journey from rough manuscript to finished book has been made much more tolerable and enjoyable by colleagues who shared unstintingly of their time and good humor: Yelena Baraz, Joshua Billings, Caroline Cheung, Marc Domingo Gygax, Denis Feeney, Andrew Feldherr, Harriet Flower, Michael Flower, Brooke Holmes, Bob Kaster, Daniela Mairhofer, and Brent Shaw. Participants in the SPQR reading group and the students who enrolled in the two graduate seminars I taught fall 2016 and 2017 opened my eyes to new ways of doing business; my warmest gratitude goes to Tyler Archer, Malina Buturovic, Katie Cruz, Katie Dennis, Brahm Kleinman, Maggie Kurkoski, Sarah Johnson, Caroline Mann, Carolyn Tobin, Keegan Valbuena, Thomas Wilson, and Elliot Wilson. At a 2017 Princeton conference that I co-organized with Amit Shilo (UCSB), Ashley Flavell (Auckland) gave a paper on temple construction in archaic Rome: I learned a great deal not only from drafting a response to the paper but also from the question-and-answer that followed.
