Description

Explore the foundational ideas of one of the most influential historians of myth. This multidisciplinary study serves as the first book dedicated entirely to the critical interpretation of Mircea Eliade's writings on myth. As a central theorist in the field, Eliade argued that all myth is inherently religious, a concept that continues to shape academic discussions. In this volume, Douglas Allen provides a critical interpretation of Eliade's theories regarding religion, myth, and symbolism. The text examines several controversial topics, such as the relationship between myth and history. It also looks at how Eliade's anti-modern perspective functions when making sense of myth. This book is an essential resource for students and scholars interested in the deep connections between religious thought and mythological structures.
