"Ces deux volumes constituent une somme qui fait honneur à ses deux éditeurs et aux nombreux auteurs. Le soin apporté à la publication mérite ’être souligné ; il est le fruit d’efforts dont on imagine aisément la lourdeur." - Corinne Bonnet, Université Toulouse - Jean Jaurès, in: Bryn Mawr Classical Review, October 2019
"This book represents an immense step forward not only for Isiac studies but for the study of the ancient world as a whole. The contributions present a great range of methodologies as well as focal points within the broader topic at a consistently high level of research and editing. Such a kaleidoscope of good work is hugely valuable for the discipline (...) This volume is already a reference work for the ages and sets a high bar for future research." - Stephanie Pearson, Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, in: Arys 17 (2019)

Valentino Gasparini, Ph.D. (Siena, 2009), is currently Research Fellow at the University Carlos III of Madrid, leading a project on “Lived Ancient Religion in North Africa” (2018-2022). He is going to defend his habilitation at the University of Erfurt with a dissertation entitled Isiacus. Agency, experience and communication in everyday Isiac cultic practice.
Richard Veymiers, Ph.D. (Liège, 2008), started a directorship at the Royal Museum of Mariemont after serving as Marie Skłodowska-Curie Research Fellow at Leiden University in 2017-2018. His scholarly interests (exemplified by the volumes of the Bibliotheca Isiaca series) focus on the functioning of visual cultures and their role within the processes of culture-contact, mobility and transference in the ancient societies.
