Summary

Mircea Eliade: A treatise on the history of religions

A treatise on the history of religions is the work of Mircea Eliade, one of the greatest authorities in the field of comparative religion, which aims to acquaint the reader with "the labyrinth of complexity of religious data, their basic forms and the diversity of cultures they reflect." Eliade, in this work, studies hierophany on different cosmic levels (sky, water, earth, stone), then biological and local hierophany, as well as myths and symbols. However, they are not studied as separate phenomena, nor is there any trace of positivism or rationalism in the study of these phenomena. Eliade insists that religious phenomena must primarily be studied in their own basic plane of reality. Information about sky gods, sun worship, water symbolism, fertility rites, holy places, etc. are reasons in themselves to read this work. However, Eliade's approach to the nature of religious phenomena is considered the most valuable. Knowing the essence of religious phenomena eludes psychologists, sociologists, linguists and other experts, because they do not study them as religious phenomena. According to Eliade, they missed one irreducible element within religious phenomena, which is the element of the sacred. Eliade showed the ways in which human efforts to live in the sphere of the sacred were manifested within various cultures and how, with interesting variations, certain beliefs, rituals, symbols and myths were maintained.
