Playing with the Gods: Materiality of Religious Communication and Ludic Materiality in Cicero’s Critique of Divination
Cicero’s treatise On Divination is among the most intense ancient discussions of divinatory practices, arguing as much against the background of a long and rich tradition in Greek philosophy as contemporary and recent Roman practices.

520 | |a Cicero’s treatise On Divination is among the most intense ancient discussions of divinatory practices, arguing as much against the background of a long and rich tradition in Greek philosophy as contemporary and recent Roman practices. Focusing on book 2, my contribution will reconstruct Cicero’s "ludic view" of divinatory ritual and extispicy in particular (2.26-41). I will argue that the reference to playing is an important part of Cicero’s argument. I will then use this ancient observation as a hermeneutic lens onto divinatory practices and the materiality involved here. I will conclude on an enquiry into the question of how central this very materiality is for the construction of the divine and the establishment of a bidirectional relationship with it. | ||
520 | |a Le traité Sur la divination de Cicéron est l’une des plus intenses discussions antiques sur les pratiques divinatoires, s’appuyant tant sur la longue tradition de la philosophie grecque que sur les pratiques romaines, récentes et contemporaines. Centré sur le livre II, le présent article entend reconstruire la « vision ludique » que Cicéron développe sur le rituel divinatoire, et l’extispicine en particulier (II, 26-41). La référence au jeu est une partie importante de l’argumentation de Cicéron. Ce point de vue antique servira de lentille herméneutique pour observer les pratiques divinatoires et leur matérialité. En conclusion, on s’interrogera sur le rôle central que joue une telle matérialité dans la construction du divin et l’élaboration d’une interaction avec lui. | ||
