Revision of the author's doctoral thesis of 1982. "The subject of the book is the cult of Isis during the Roman Empire, as expressed in numerous depictions of the Egyptian goddess and such women assimilated to her. While on the one hand these women can generally be recognized as servants of Isis, on the other hand a special light falls on the images of the goddess selected for comparison. The book thus deals with two problem areas, namely the position of these women in the cult and the associated question of the meaning and significance of the images of Isis."
