Abstract:
Resumen: En Atenas, el escenario principal en época clásica era el teatro de Dioniso, vinculado al culto de este dios, lo que se ve transpuesto a los héroes en el desarrollo de la ciudad, en el paso de los cultos agrarios a fiestas cívicas, en un proceso de integración relacionado con las tiranías.Dioniso es el que ha dado a los hombres alegría y dolor, según Hesíodo. Él mismo es pues personificación de las contradicciones de la vida misma, en la que es difícil hallar el gozo en estado puro. Pero existía antes un culto heroico que se integra en las ciudades en su formación como poleis.Abstract: In Athens, the main stage in classical times was the theatre of Dionysus, linked to the worship of this god. This is transposed to the heroes in the development of the city, in the transition from the agricultural cults to civic celebrations, in an integration process relatedto the tyrannies. Dionysus is who has given to men joy and pain, according to Hesiod. It is thus a personification of the contradictions of life itself, in which it is difficult to find joy in its purest form. But before there was a heroic cult which is integrated in the cities in their formation as poleis.Palabras clave: Dioniso, teatro, culto heroico, cultos agrarios, poleisKey words: Dionysus, theatre, heroic cults, agricultural cults, poleis

Abstract:
Riassunto: La politica religiosa di Commodo presenta due momenti significativi che corrispondono a due diversi atteggia­menti sia verso la religione tradizionale e, più in generale verso i culti esterni, sia verso il cristianesimo. La svolta matura soprattutto negli ultimi anni del suo reg­no quando Commodo opera una rottu­ra sia con il culto imperiale attraverso l’assimilazione a Ercole, che risulta tutta­via effimera, sia con la politica anticris­tiana di Marco che risulta più feconda e duratura in rapporto alle sorti del cristia­nesimo successivo.Abstract: Commodus’ religious policy shows two phases that correspond to two different attitudes both towards traditional religion and, more generally, to external cults, and towards Christianity. The breakthrough matured above all in the last years of his reign when Commodus made a break both with the imperial cult through as­similation to Hercules, which is however ephemeral, and with the anti-Christian policy of Marcus which is more fruitful and lasting in relation to the fate of subse­quent Christianity.Parole chiave: Commodo, Ercole, Culti tradizionali, Cristiani.Key words: Commodus, Hercules, Traditional Cults, Christians.

Abstract:
The illegal activities of cult organizations have brought enormous human, material, and economic losses to the country and people, and have caused irreparable personal harm to innocent people. The repeated occurrence of self harm or violence against others caused by cults that harm society shows that the remnants of cults have not been completely eliminated. Under the joint crackdown of multiple government departments and systematic operation, large-scale cult organizations have collapsed, but sporadic and small-scale cult activities are difficult to completely eradicate. Therefore, eliminating the breeding ground for cults and gradually cleaning up the problem of cult governance in cult organizations should be highly valued by the Party and the government, and preventing sporadic cults from resurgence through various opportunities. In terms of cult governance, the government has invested a large amount of governance resources, severely cracking down on cults and transforming cult followers, while safeguarding the basic rights of individuals involved in cults and guiding them to return to the community. From the professional perspective of social work, using the theoretical perspective of social work to analyze the problems of cults, and proposing the use of the three major professional methods of social work to participate in the governance of cults and the transformation of cult believers, promoting better solutions to cult governance issues.

Abstract:
Since there are not any epigraphic sources from the times before the Roman invasion of the Dardanian Kingdom (Mbretëria dardane), stone monuments with Latin inscriptions from the period of Roman invasion represent a source of enormous importance for the study of beliefs and cults on Dardan soils, both before the invasion and during the Roman rule, forgods and various cults, which were relicts of earlier times, are represented on epigraphic monuments of the first century A.D.According to the results of studies on about 600 epigraphic monuments dating from the beginning of our era until the time of expansion of Christianity as the official religion of the Roman Empire, it was attested that cults of native gods, official as well as nonofficial Roman cults, were worshipped on Dardan soils. From the cults of native gods epigraphically was testified worshipping of the cult of Andin (Deus Andinus, protector of family, home and community), Dardania (Dea Dardania, a goddess who personified Dardanian soils). Zbeltiurdusor Zbeltiurdud (the main Thracian god worshipped as a native godas well), Tatto (Illyrian god honoured by all Illyrian tribes particularly in Dalmatia), Silvan (Roman god, native gods were honoured by his name), Dracco andDraccena (divine couple connected with the cult of snake), Quadrivia (the goddess of crossroads), then certain local variants of the cult of Jupiter in forms of IOM Ulpianensis and IOM Paternus Aepilophius,IOM Propulsator, IOM Cohortalis, cults of some Genii (genii sttationis Municipi DD, Genii loci Illyrici, GeniiIllyrici), and also two unknown gods: Atta Sacra and Deus Mund(ritus?). From official cults of the Roman state worshippingof the cult of Jupiter alone was testified, or the cult of Jupiter together with goddesses Junona and Minerva,forming the divine trinity of Capitol, further worshippingof the cult of Diana, Mars, Bellone, Mercury, Neptun,Hercules, the Nymphs, Hercules, Liber and Libera,Terra Mater, Fortuna, Genii, Lares, Dii Manes as wellas the cult of the current emperor was also attested.Among nonofficial cults epigraphically were testifiedcults of greek and of oriental Origin such as: the cult of Zeus Ezaios, Apollo, Dionysus, Sabazios, Asclepios or Aesculapus, Heracles, Jupiter Dolichenus, Jupiter Melcid, Jupiter Melano, as well as the cults of Greek goddesses Hera, Hygia, Nemesis and Hylara, the cult of Egyptian gods Serapis and Isis, syrian goddess Atargatis or Dea Syria, honoring of the cults of personswho were made heroes after their death (Antinous and Alexander) and of mortals (Omphale, the queen of Lydia and one of the wives of Heracles). Honouring of all the above mentioned cults proves the presence of genuine liberalism of Dardanian soilas far as religious belief is concerned, which spread until the time when Christianity, despite persecutions of Roman officials and the rivalry of Mithraism, prevailed and became the official religion of the Roman Empire. Christian inscriptions on Dardanian soil began to appear by the end of the fourth century A.D. and became more frequent during the fifth and the sixth century, a time when earlier Social and Economic crises reached their culmination, when all strata ofpopullation turned to Church, seeking the meaning of life, hope and saviour.Thus church gained strength and became one of most important pillars of cultural and institutional continuity of the world of antiquity. Neverless, in the provinces where was centred the Roman Army, the christianism prevailed only until in the IVth and Vth century BC because the Roman Army was the last stronghold of the paganism.

Abstract:
Destructive cults strengthen their motivating factors by self-proclaimed and covert means and target at specific groups as potential cult believers. Based on theories of dynamics and “product life cycle”, this paper probes destructive cults’ power source and their target believers. The power recession of destructive cults is also discussed by introducing the theory of “hierarchy of needs”. This paper, by advocating scientific beliefs, opposing destructive cults, and through the analysis of the experimental cases, aims to provide some suggestions for the realization and transcendence of individuals, communities and even the whole human beings.

Abstract:
The aim of this article is an attempt of comparative approach to the personality cult phenomenon, which formed the distinctive feature of three totalitarian political systems developed in Europe after the first world war, namely Italy during the rule of Benito Mussolini, Nazi Third Reich and the Stalinist Soviet Union. And so, after some general presentation of personality cults centered on three leaders of these totalitarian political systems, four general questions had been analyzed. These were as follows: some so-called “cult products”, some methods used in the cult’s propaganda, some functions of the cult of personality and finally some attitudes of totalitarian political leaders toward the cult of personality.

Abstract:
The increasing spiritual consciousness in Igboland since the end of the civil war has created conditions for the emergence of several cult groups. One of such cults is the Ezenwanyi practice. It has in recent times gained more prominence. What started as a call to serve the spiritual needs of the people, has grown to include other interests. The cult’s uniqueness, as the name literally implies (woman king), is that its membership is an exclusive reserve of women. This has raised a number of questions: Why this female chauvinism? Is it a counter to other male cults? Do the gods also recognise gender speciality in discharging certain spiritual functions? Is it possible in a supposedly patriarchal society such as the Igbo, to have a spiritual cult group that excludes the male folk? Is it part of female empowerment? Apparently, these questions have not been adequately addressed in the literature. Therefore, in this study, the authors explored the notion of gender autonomy in the Ezenwanyi cult in Enugu-Ezike, Obollo-Afor and Okpuje using a descriptive narrative technique. The findings reveal that (apart from claims of call to service, peer influence, economic interest and social relevance), cultural revival is evident in the growing interest in and proliferation of the Ezenwanyi cult practice.

Abstract:
Boris Kolonitskii continues his studies of the cult of Alexander Kerensky in 1917 and the larger issues of the vocabulary used to describe leaders and the nature of cults and their relationship to authoritarianism in Russian and Soviet history. He reviews the linguistic fields surrounding such revolutionary figures as Miliukov, Rodzianko, Chernov, Plekhanov and Lenin and shows how politicians may become hostages of their own rhetoric. Hero image terminology can sanctify the leader. But even negative publicity or criticism can lead to the strengthening of the cult image. The construction of cults is subject to reversals and shifting creativity. Cults have pre- histories and are vital to our understanding of 20th century politics.

Stafford, Emma Josephine. "Greek cults of deified abstractions." Thesis, University College London (University of London), 1994. http://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/1317665/.

Full text
Abstract:
This dissertation aims to explore the phenomenon of the worship of abstract concepts in personified form and its development in the Archaic and Classical periods. An introductory chapter surveys previous scholarly literature on the subject and covers some general theoretical issues: i) definitions; ii) problems of sources and methodology; iii) the question of the predominantly feminine gender of these figures; iv) ancient and modern theories on deified abstractions as a class. Six chapters then look at a selection of individual cults in roughly chronological sequence, each exemplifying one or more of the general questions raised by such cults. Themis provides a good example of the very "mythological" deified abstractions of the Archaic period and the problems of tracing the origins and early history of personification cults. Nemesis was probably worshipped at Rhamnous from the sixth century, but acquires unique status in the fifth from an association with the battle of Marathon; the cult of the two Nemeseis at Smyrna, I argue, is a fourth-century innovation. Peitho is often associated with rhetoric, but a survey of her cult associations in a variety of locations emphasises her erotic side, an aspect further revealed in vase-painting. These three figures all have roots in archaic literature, whereas Hygieia, though soon mythologised as daughter of Asklepios, does not appear in any medium before her arrival in Athens in 420 BC in the healing god's wake. Her cult particularly raises the question of how seriously personifications could be taken as deities, since the concept which she embodies is so patently a human desideratum. Later innovations are similarly often dismissed as "mere" allegory or propaganda, as is illustrated by the case of Eirene in fourth-century Athens, most famously represented in Kephisodotos' group of Peace holding the child Wealth, her cult introduced in response to quite specific political circumstances. The problems of correlating archaeological and literary sources are particularly acute in the case of the most "abstract", figure to be considered, Eleos, eponymous deity of the Athenian "altar of Pity"; although the altar dates from the late sixth century, its insubstantial god is probably a later development. From these six case studies some provisional conclusions can be offered on the place of deified abstract ideas in Greek religious thought and practice.

Abstract:
The report examines the phenomenon of so-called "semiotic cults" — communities of like-minded people formed around works of popular culture, both literary and visual (films, cartoons, comics, etc.) and having features of a religious cult. This issue seems to be especially relevant in the context of the digital age, in the context of the widespread use of social networks and the adoption of a paradigm for determining the value of content through "feedback" expressed in likes, comments and the number of subscribers. As an example of such a para-religious movement, the community of "Disney adults" formed around Disney products is cited.

Abstract:
The worship to Sky, Earth and Mountains served in ancient times as the basis for the emergence of priesthood, shamanism, tengrianism, as well as for other cults and beliefs. The results of archaeological research of ancient sacred objects in Altai indicate that the origins of these beliefs go back to ancient times, can be traced back to the Early Bronze Age, but were especially pronounced in the Pazyryk culture. At the foot of three significant Altai mountains (Belukha, Sarlyk, Kurkurebazhi) there are large mounds in Tuekta, Bashadar, Berel and Pazyryk. Archaeological, geographical and ethnographic studies of ancient cult monuments at the foot and on the slopes of the Altai mountains are of great importance for the study of objects associated with sacred representations of the Sky and Mountains.

Abstract:
La Ciudad de México ha visto en los últimos veinte años diversas formas de habitar sus espacios públicos, convertidos también en espacios de conflicto por las condiciones geo-políticas imperantes, estos no-sitios han sido poblados por manifestaciones estéticas, todas coincidentes en una gramática visual de la apropiación, el emplazamiento y la acumulación de objetos en desuso, chatarra y demás excedentes de un sistema económico alguna vez promesa de modernidad que nunca llegó. Este proyecto construyó un puente entre estas manifestaciones estéticas urbanas con el fenómeno aparecido durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial en las islas de Oceanía Remota: los cargo cults, mito que incubó los movimientos de independencia en este archipiélago. La investigación abordó el dibujo desde la noción de dispositivo, entidad transversal, heurística y autónoma que a partir de una estrategia situacionista generó una taxonomía conformada por 22 láminas de medio tono a la usanza de la ilustración científica, el cual recopiló diversos ensamblajes en la ciudad utilizando la deriva como trabajo de campo teniendo en común una específica carga simbólica emancipatoria y todos ellos siendo construidos por bricoleurs: creadores anónimos-colectivos. Esta tesis contribuye al estudio del dibujo como un dispositivo, que opera como palanca para articular ideas, aprehender el mundo y colaborar en nuevos saberes universales, decoloniales y emancipatorios como posibilidades de afirmación colectiva.http://dx.doi.org/10.4995/ANIAV.2017.5790

Abstract:
The cult of the Serbian Holy king Stephan Milutin existed in the Russian Orthodox Church from the second half of 16th to the beginning of the 19th century. This is evidenced by 12 liturgical manuscripts (Festal Menaions and various types of Sticherarions) from the most significant Russian monasteries – The Holy Trinity St. Sergius Monastery, Kirillo-Beloyersky Monastery and Moscow, in which the Holy king is mentioned under the date of October the 30th. Nine of the manuscripts (two menaions and seven sticherarions with Russian neumatic notation) preserved the Service to the Holy king Milutin by Danilo Bansky or its parts (usually sticheras prosomoions). The analysis of the texts showed that the hymongraphic composition and textual content in the Russian manuscripts did not change significantly in comparing to the Serbian transcripts. The Serbian transcript of the Service to the Holy king reached the Moscow Metropolitanate in 1550 and became a protograph from which the Russian transcripts were made. However, the spread of the cult of the Holy King Milutin and the multiplication of the transcripts of Service in his honor in Russia was stopped by the reform of Patriarch Nikon in the middle of the 17th century when, due to revision of the calendar and reduction of holidays, many books were destroyed and cults were abolished. For that reason, the Service to the Holy king Milutin did not enter the Russian written and old printed Menaions for October, just as the mention of the Holy king did not find a place in the calendar of the printed editions of the Jerusalem Typikon. In post-Nikon epoch, the cult of the Holy king Milutin continued to live in the old believer’s communities, where the hymnography in his honor was preserved in musical manuscripts until the beginning of the 19th century. The entire historical development of the cult of the Serbian Holy king Stephan Milutin in Russian Church shows how important topic he was not only in Russian liturgical literature, but also in church-singing art.

Abstract:
We design and field an innovative survey of unemployment insurance (UI) recipients that yields new insights about wage stickiness on the layoff margin. Most UI recipients express a willingness to accept wage cuts of 5-10 percent to save their jobs, and one-third would accept a 25 percent cut. Yet worker-employer discussions about cuts in pay, benefits, or hours in lieu of layoffs are exceedingly rare. When asked why employers don’t raise the possibility of job-preserving pay cuts, four-in-ten UI recipients don’t know. Sixteen percent say cuts would undermine morale or lead the best workers to quit, and 39 percent don’t think wage cuts would save their jobs. For those who lost union jobs, 45 percent say contractual restrictions prevent wage cuts. Among those on permanent layoff who reject our hypothetical pay cuts, half say they have better outside options, and 38 percent regard the proposed pay cut as insulting. Our results suggest that wage cuts acceptable to both worker and employer could potentially prevent a quarter of the layoffs in our sample. We draw on our findings and other evidence to assess theories of wage stickiness and its role in layoffs.
