Mystic Italy is a book written by Michael I. Rostovtzeff that provides a comprehensive exploration of the mystical and spiritual aspects of Italy. The book is divided into several sections, each of which focuses on a different region or city in Italy, including Rome, Florence, Venice, and Naples. Within each section, Rostovtzeff delves into the history, art, and architecture of the area, as well as the religious and spiritual beliefs and practices of its inhabitants. He explores the role of mysticism in Italian culture, from the ancient Roman cults to the Christian mystics of the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. Through his vivid descriptions and insightful analysis, Rostovtzeff paints a rich and fascinating portrait of Italy's spiritual heritage. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the history, culture, and spirituality of Italy.1927. This work represents the Colver Lectures at Brown University for 1927. The author's aim is not to give a general picture of the mystic tendencies which prevailed in Italy in the ancient times - such a task cannot yet be performed adequately, since our information for some parts of Italy and for some periods is very scanty, for other times and places totally wanting. It is to present an analysis of certain monuments or Pompeii and of Rome which reflect mystic tendencies in the population of these two places during the early Roman Empire. Contents: Mystic Italy; Mystic Pompeii; Mystic Rome; Notes.
