| SUMMARY: |
Nowadays, Mircea Eliade is more studied than ever. This is evidenced by the high number of volumes on Mircea Eliade’s life and work, which are being published all over the world. Whether one refers to his correspondence, his literary or scientific works, or to his slightly political articles from the interwar period, Mircea Eliade – his oeuvre as well as his personal life – is still taken up by specialists and the public. The present volume comes out as a result of an international seminar – Mircea Eliade between the History of Religions and the Fall into History – held on April 2, 2012, in Cluj-Napoca. It contains dr. Henry Pernet’s lecture given on that occasion and also three
other articles signed by specialists in Eliade’s oeuvre and his political implication. The volume offers to its readers an important and valuable correspondence on the subject of Eliade, between Ioan Petru Culianu and
Mac Linscott Ricketts, edited and introduced by Liviu Bordaș. |
