Religions of the World: Ancient Religions of the Mediterranean

Plot

Narrated by Ben Kingsley, each installment in the Religions of the World series offers an in-depth investigation into the practices and theology of a major world religion. Through interviews with experts, examination of artifacts, and dramatic reenactments, the major facets of these faiths are brought to light and explicated. In this particular video, the rich religious heritage of the Mediterranean basin is examined, including close looks at the Greeks, Romans, and Egyptians. Consideration is given to the role that religion in these societies played within the politics of the states they flourished under. ~ Rob Ferrier, Rovi
