Mircea Eliade: From Magic to Myth addresses a series of topics that
have been neglected in scholarship. First and foremost, the book
looks at the early Romanian background of some of Eliade's ideas,
especially his magical universe, which took on a more mythical
nature with his arrival in the West. Other chapters deal with
Eliade's attitude toward Judaism, which is crucial for his
phenomenology of religion, and the influences of Kabbalah on his
early work. Later chapters address his association with the
Romanian extreme right movement known as the Iron Guard and the
reverberation of some of the images in the post-war Eliade as well
as with the status of Romanian culture in his eyes after World War
II. The volume concludes by assessing the impact of Eliade's
personal experiences on the manner in which he presented religion.
The book will be useful in classes in the history of religion and
the history of Eastern European intellectuals.
