Roman Republican Augury: Freedom and Control - Oxford Classical Monographs
Driediger-Murphy, Lindsay G. (Assistant Professor in Latin and Roman Social / Religious History, Assistant Professor in Latin and Roman Social / Religious History, Department of Classics and Religion, University of Calgary, Canada)
Scholarship on Roman Republican augury has previously tended towards the view that official divination was organized to tell its users what they wanted to hear. This volume argues instead that its rules did not allow humans simply to create or ignore signs at will: when human and divine will clashed it was the latter which was supposed to prevail.
