The Science of Religion and the Sociology of Knowledge
Ambitiously undertaking to develop a strategy for making the study of religion "scientific," Ninian Smart tackles a set of interrelated issues that bear importantly on the status of religion as an academic discipline. He draws a clear distinction between studying religion and "doing theology," and considers how phenomenological method may be used in investigating objects of religious attitudes without presupposing the existence of God or gods. He…

What is Religion
What is Religion? consists of fourteen essays written by a selection of scholars who represent a wide spectrum of approaches to the acedamic study of religion. Each of the essays is an effort not only to take stock of the present controversy concerning appropriate methodologies for the study of religion, but also to take one giant step beyond that to formulate a precise definition of religion. Given the considerable confusion today about what it …
Dimensions of the Sacred
Response to Brian K. Smith
Dans la seconde moitie du XX e siecle, il semble que l'hindouisme de Gandhi ait ete erode par des forces politiques telles que le mouvement Hindutva qui reprend quelques uns de ses themes, mais combat ostensiblement son esprit pluraliste. Il faut garder a l'esprit que le christianisme evangelique des Anglais a attaque le polytheisme hindou. Les reformateurs utilitariens ont critique le systeme des castes, le mariage des enfants. L'enseignement su…

On declaring peace
Donald Wiebe and Luther Martin have their hearts in the right place, and there intellects more or less where their hearts are, but with trailing edges. They criticize my suggestion in Ursula King's recent Turning Points in Theology (Edinburgh: T. & T. Clark, 1990) for a World Academy of Religion, perhaps based on the IAHR (which they honourably seek to defend). Their criticisms are in part theoretical, and they think that I have conducted a U-tur…

In this book van der Leeuw discusses the horizontal path to God and the vertical paths descending from God and ascending to Him. If God Himself appears, it is in a totally different manner, which results not in intelligible utterance, but in proclamation; and it is with this that theology has to deal.Originally published in 1986.The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print…

Interpretation and Mystical Experience
Professor R. C. Zaehner's distinction between panenhenic, monistic and theistic mysticism will be examined. It will be argued that there is no necessary reason to suppose that the latter two types involve different sorts of experience: the difference lies rather in the way the experience is interpreted. Likewise it will be argued that the Theravādin experience of nirvana, which is interpreted neither in a monistic nor in a theistic sense, may wel…
