Jon D. Mikalson examines how Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, and other Greek        philosophers described, interpreted, criticized, and utilized the components and        concepts of the religion of the people of their time - practices such as sacrifice,        prayer, dedications, and divination. The chief concepts involved are those of piety        and impiety, and after a thorough analysis of the philosophical texts Mikalson        offers a refined definition of Greek piety, dividing it into its two        constituentelements of `proper respect' for the gods and `religious correctness'. He        concludes with a demonstration of the benevolence of the gods in the philosophical        tradition, linking it to the expectation of that benevolence evinced by popular        religion.
