  The Two Babylons (58)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
The first deified woman was no doubt Semiramis, as the first deified man was her husband.
But it is evident that it was some time after the Mysteries began that this deification took place; for it was not till after Semiramis was dead that she was exalted to divinity, and worshipped under the form of a dove.
Semiramis, being deified as Astarte, came to be raised to the highest honours; and her change into a dove, as has been already shown (p.

Deified, Ostracized, and Medicalized: A study of the interaction between third genders and their societies.
If their skirting of gender or sex lines thwarts that potential, then they are generally not well received by their society.
And, instead of accepting them as ordinary members they must be deified, ostracized, or medicalized to explain their condition.

 Davis: Augustus Deified or Denigrated?  The Political Subtext of Anchises' Speech in Aeneid Book VI
Vergil, the most illustrious poet of the Augustan era, presents an Augustus that is nothing short of deified.
The entire course of Roman history, as it is presented to Aeneas, seems to culminate in the reign of the glorious Augustus.
[1] Scholars have frequently discussed the Augustus' relationship with Romulus, the legendary and deified founder of Rome, in the poem, suggesting that Augustus is to be seen as a second founder, another, greater divine champion of Rome.

 Ancient History Sourcebook: Suetonius: De Vita Caesarum--Divus Augustus
As the Deified Julius was cutting down a wood at Munda and preparing a place for his camp, coming across a palm tree, he caused it to be spared as an omen of victory.
One man proposed that the name of the month of August be transferred to September, because Augustus was born in the latter, but died in the former; another, that all the period from the day of his birth until his demise be called the Augustan Age, and so entered in the Calendar.
But though a limit was set to the honours paid him, his eulogy was twice delivered: before the temple of the Deified Julius by Tiberius, and from the old rostra by Drusus, son of Tiberius; and he was carried on the shoulders of Senators to the Campus Martius and there cremated.

 Athanasius' Doctrine of Divinization
The Greek moralists and ancient mysteries taught that a person may be deified by contemplating the eternal and eliminating the sensuous (Harnack 2:10, 337).
Since the Greeks considered some of their ``gods'' to be of human origin, it was not strange to think of a theopoi_sis.
This was sometimes taken to excess, as when Psellus claimed that a deified person had the power to deify someone else (Pelikan 2:247).

These questions and others were raised during Electrified, Amplified, and Deified: The Electric Guitar, Its Makers, and Its Players, the second in the Lemelson Center's annual series on New Perspectives on Invention and Innovation.
A final highlight of the Electrified, Amplified, and Deified program was the opening of the exhibit "From Frying Pan to Flying V: The Rise of the Electric Guitar" at the Lemelson Center and in the NMAH Hall of Musical Instruments.
Pointing out that there is a lot more to invention than a flash of inspiration in an inventor's eye, the exhibit focuses on the inventors, manufacturers, and designers who conceived and popularized the electric guitar.

 Chapter 32: The Absurdity of the Trinity
Not only was the Godhead made up of the Father and Christ (and some were erroneously beginning to think of the Holy Spirit as occupying the third spot), it was common knowledge that the third category was to be filled with human beings.
Or, they limited it to a “Trinity” until mankind would be deified into the “Godhead” at their resurrections.
This restriction to three individuals in the Godhead (as the Trinity doctrine teaches) was at first devised to describe the Godhead during this present age (and not in the age to come).

 PBS Deified Me for Being a Tyrant
With Games 4 and 5, I sought to correct the choices I made in the previous games that led to setbacks, but Fate is a cruel mistress, and I was killed by Drusus, and again by Sejanus.
Remembering that Augustus himself was deified, and that Tiberius was adopted but not biologically related to the now Divine Augustus, any direct descendent of his would pose a potent everpresent threat to my regime, I decided to exterminate any links to the previous regime.
The more you lie and steal, the more you smear and corrupt, the more you will be excused and even justified and rationalized, and people will readily speak up to defend the bluring of the differences between private and public morality.
