Abstract
Este trabajo trata de ofrecer una visión global de los aspectos religiosos y los cambios mentales acaecidos entre el final del siglo II y el principio del siglo III, una época de gran importancia en la evolución sincretista que configurará las cosmovisiones de los habitantes del Imperio desde los principios del siguiente siglo. La llegada de la dinastía de los Severos propició una gran afluencia de cultos orientales que modificaron sensiblemente la vida cotidiana de los ciudadanos, así como sus experiencias religiosas. La búsqueda de una verdad revelada y el deseo de encontrar otra vida después de la muerte propiciaron el auge de la magia y la presencia de lo maravilloso en la vida cotidiana, una influencia de la que no escaparía ni la propia filosofía, facilitando por otra parte una mayor aceptación del cristianismo.
This work means to offer a global frame of the religious aspects and mental changes during the end of the Second Century and the beginning of the Third Century, a time of great importance in the syncretistic evolution that will configure the world view of the denizens of the Empire for the next century. The consolidation of the Severan Dynasty attained a big affluence of oriental cults that changed markedly the everyday´s life of the citizens, as much as their religious experiences. The quest for a revealed truth and the desire of a life before death brought in the growth of the magic and quotidian wonder, a trend that will affect the very Philosophy and thus paved the way to a better acceptance to Christianity.
