Aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Wolfgang Haase, langjährigem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) / From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - minimal vergilbt, ansonsten tadelloser Zustand / minimally yellowed, otherwise perfect condition - ivurcea Eiiaae The primary goal of this study is to determine the nature of religion through its various manifestations. It is not a handbook. Instead it is an examination based on sound scholarship of religious facts throughout the ages and their relationship to each other and to the nature of religion as a whole. Since Professor Eliade believes strictly historical, chronological, or categorical approaches to religion are misleading, he views the "diverse and chaotic mass of actions, beliefs and systems which go together to make up what one may call the religious phenomenon" as something of a very special character which should be studied in itself before it is related to other social, economic, and linguistic factors. Through this approach he leads the reader to a basic understanding of the mystery of religion.

"In this era of increased knowledge the essence of religious phenomena eludes the psychologists, sociologists, linguists, and other specialists because they do not study it as religious. According to Mircea Eliade, they miss the one irreducible element in religious phenomena. The element of the sacred. Eliade abundantly demonstrates universal religious experience and shows how humanity's effort to live within a sacred sphere has manifested itself in myriad cultures from. ancient to modern times; how certain beliefs, rituals, symbols, and myths have, with interesting variations, persisted." .
