Historical fundamentals and the study of religions
Kurt Rudolph
Macmillan
"For the historian of religions there is, strictly speaking, no one religion at all. There are only religions." This book, based on Kurt Rudolph's Haskell Lectures at the University of Chicago, epitomizes 200 years of German scholarship in the history of religions. Students of the history of religions will find the book to be a skillled and engaging guide through the frequently forbidding vocabulary and conceptual complexity of the German tradition of religious scholarship.<br>
