May I recommend -

Clark, Anna. Divine Qualities: Cult and Community in Republican Rome. Oxford, 2007.

This book goes into greater detail yet is still introductory. It is a good next step from Scheid.

If you are interested PM me.

Vale,

Philo

I would like to suggest the book of Frances Bernstein - Classical Living: A Month to Month Guide to Ancient Rituals for Heart and Home:

http://www.amazon.com/Classical-Living- ... cal+living

There is a lot of interesting ideas and practical application in this book. This book also contains some quotes from Ovid concerning Cultus Deorum.
