Oracles and Sibyls: Telling the Future in the Past
J-210


     

What will tomorrow bring? The Greek and Romans were as curious about the future as we are today. The gods spoke and told the future at special sites, called oracles, and through individuals, called Sibyls. A concise account of Michelangelo’s five Sibyls — Libyan, Cumaean, Delphic, Persian, Erythraean — leads to a fascinating presentation of these “future telling” sites and legendary stories of prophecies and famous visitors.
