Focusing on the initiate's experience, this study delves into Mithraism, a mystery cult that thrived during the Roman Empire alongside early Christianity. Roger Beck explores the religion's rich symbolic system through rituals, language, and communal life, employing anthropological and cognitive science methods. He specifically analyzes the semiotics of the cult's astral symbolism, building on his extensive previous research in this area.
