The Orphici is a book written by Francis Legge that explores the ancient Greek religious movement known as Orphism. The Orphics were a group of people who believed in the teachings of the mythical poet Orpheus and his ideas on the afterlife, the soul, and the divine. Legge delves into the history and beliefs of the Orphics, examining their rituals, myths, and symbols. He also explores the impact of Orphism on Greek society and its influence on other religious movements. The book provides a comprehensive overview of Orphism, drawing on ancient texts, archaeological evidence, and modern scholarship. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in ancient Greek religion, mythology, and philosophy.THIS 34 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Forerunners and Rivals of Christianity From 330 BC to 330 AD, by Francis Legge.
