''Nova Roma'' is an international〔Palacios, Juan José: "Corporate citizenship and social responsibility in a globalized world". ''Citizenship Studies'' 8(4):383-402. Routledge, 2004〕〔Danese, Roberto/Bacianini, Andrea/Torino, Alessio: ''Weni, widi, wici: tra 'volumen" e byte''. p. 133. Guaraldi, 2003"〕 Roman revivalist and reconstructionist organization〔Strmiska, Michael: ''Modern Paganism in World Cultures: Comparative Perspectives'', pp. 335-36. ABC-CLIO, 2005〕 created in 1998 (or MMDCCLI AUC, 2751 AUC by the Roman calendar) by Joseph Bloch and William Bradford, later incorporated in Maine as a non-profit organization with an educational and religious mission.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Interactive Corporative Services Information on Nova Roma )〕 Nova Roma claims to promote "the restoration of classical Roman religion, culture, and virtues" and "shared Roman ideals".〔Dixon, Suzanne: ''Cornelia, Mother of the Gracchi'', page 64. Routledge, 2007〕〔Trinkle, D. A./Merriman, S. A: ''The history highway: a 21st century guide to Internet resources'', p. 464. M.E. Sharpe, 2006〕 Reported to provide online resources about Roman culture, Latin language, ancient Roman costuming and reenactment guidelines,〔〔Burgan, Michael: ''Empire of Ancient Rome'', p. 122. Infobase Publishing, 2004〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Nova Roma: Organization Dedicated to Ancient Roman Culture )〕 Nova Roma aims to be more than a community of reenactors or history study group. Strimska,〔 Davy,〔 Adler,〔 Gallagher-Ashcraft,〔Eugene V. Gallagher, W. Michael Ashcraft: ''Introduction to New and Alternative Religions in America: Metaphysical, New Age, and neopagan movements''. p. 220. Greenwood Press, 2006〕 and recently Chryssides〔George D. Chryssides, Historical Dictionary of New Religious Movements (2011, 2nd ed.)〕 refer to it as a polytheistic reconstructionist community. Because it has a structure based on the ancient Roman Republic,〔Auffarth, Chr./Bernard, J./Mohr, H.: ''Metzler Lexikon Religion: Gegenwart - Alltag - Medien'', pp. 211-12. Metzler, 2002〕 with a senate, magistrates and laws enacted by vote of the comitia,〔Danese, Roberto/Bacianini, Andrea/Torino, Alessio: ''Weni, widi, wici: tra 'volumen" e byte''. p. 134. Guaraldi, 2003"〕 and with its own coinage,〔(Sestertius signum )〕〔American Numismatic Association: ''The Numismatist'', page 19. American Numismatic Association, 2003〕 and because the Nova Roma Wiki states that the group self-identifies as a "sovereign nation", some outside observers〔〔〔Caporaso, Giovanni: ''Cambiare Identitá.: É possibile, ecco le Prove'', Offshore World Inc., 2006〕〔Vobruba, Georg: ''Grenzsoziologie: die politische Strukturierung des Raumes'', p. 210. VS Verlag, 2006〕 classify it as a micronation. ==Roman religion== Nova Roma has adopted〔Adler, Margot: ''Drawing down the moon: witches, Druids, goddess-worshippers, and other pagans in America'', p. 549. Penguin Books, 2006〕〔McColman, Carl: ''The Complete Idiot's Guide to Paganism'', pages 71 and 347. Alpha Books, 2002〕 the ancient Roman religion as its state cult, but also maintains the freedom of religion of its citizens. As a polytheistic reconstructionist practice, the ''religio Romana'' or ''cultus deorum Romanorum'' (Latin designations used by Nova Roma adherents when referring to their religion) reportedly attracts people especially of military background.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Pagan Soldier Killed Due to Shoddy Equipment? )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Mom searching for answers in soldier's death ) 〕 Both the domestic religious traditions and the so-called state religion (''sacra publica'') are represented in the practices of Nova Roma,〔Davy, Barbara Jane: ''Introduction to Pagan Studies'', pp. 156, 163, 233. Rowman Altamira, 2007〕 including the restoration〔Strmiska, Michael: ''Modern Paganism in World Cultures: Comparative Perspectives'', p. 335. ABC-CLIO, 2005〕 of the ancient priestly ''collegia'', and the honoring of the full cycle of Roman holidays throughout the year.〔Joyce Higginbotham, River Higginbotham: ''ChristoPaganism: An Inclusive Path'', p. 230. Llewellyn Worldwide, 2009〕 According to the Ontario Consultants on Religious Tolerance, at the time of Christmas, Nova Romans celebrate the Roman holiday Saturnalia.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 The Christmas wars / December dilemma )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Celebrations by various faiths near year end ) 〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Conflicts at Christmas time: What is the original "reason for the season" )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Annual secular and religious celebrations near Christmas time )〕 In 2006 Margot Adler noted the organization's plan to restore a Magna Mater shrine in Rome.〔 〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Nova Roma」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
