Fantastic book. About the book >.>.> The task of the historian of religions is basically the same as that of the historian of any other form of human activity. He is concerned to understand ideas, actions and institutions of a specific kind of past gen- erations of men and women. Although his subject matter is often very various and complex, he seeks to elucidate it by employing the same methods and techniques of research as are used by his colleagues in other fields of historical inquiry. However, while his approach and presentation of his findings must be as strictly academic as those of the political or economic historian, the historian of religions is ever aware that he is dealing with issues that have more than academic interest. To give just two obvious examples by way of illustration: in studying the origins of Christianity or of Islam, the historian of religions will be keenly aware that he has to do with two historical persons, namely, Jesus of Nazareth and Muhammed.
