Abstract

This paper argues that the cult of Asklepios developed and spread fast due to a shift in mentality in Classical Greece. This change concerned both who might communicate directly with the gods in dreams, as well as the development of a new way of envisaging healing. It is argued that the notion that anybody could receive a godsent dream, as seen in numerous incubation sanctuaries, reflects a change in mentality in Classical times. It is further argued that religious healing in the cult of Asklepios was influenced by the development of Greek medicine in Archaic times, and the ease and low expense of consulting a Hippokratic doctor in Classical times.

从专属的梦神谕到无处不在的孵化梦:对神性疗愈者感知的变化?

本文认为，古希腊人对阿斯克勒庇俄斯的崇拜之所以能迅速发展和传播，是由于思想观念的转变。这一变化既关系到那些可能在梦中与神直接交流的人，也关系到一种设想治疗的新方式的发展。有人认为，任何人都可以得到天赐之梦的观念，正如在许多孵化庇护所中看到的那样，反映了古典时代心态的变化。还有人认为，阿斯克勒庇俄斯崇拜中的宗教治疗受到了古代希腊医学发展的影响，以及古典时期希波克拉底医生治疗的便利性和低费用。

期刊介绍： Acta Archaeologica, founded in 1930, is the leading scientific international archaeological periodical in Scandinavia. Acta Archaeologica is published annually and contains 200 to 250 large pages, beautifully illustrated. The papers are in English, German, French, or Italian, well-edited, and of lasting value. Acta Archaeologica covers the archaeology of Scandinavia, including the North Atlantic, until about 1500 AD. At the same time, Acta Archaeologica is underscoring the position of Northern Europe in its wider continental context. Mediterranean (and Near Eastern) archaeology plays a particular role. Contributions from arctic, maritime and other branches of archaeology, as well as from other continents, are included.
