Mircea Eliade founded the modern study of the history of religions and authored many books, including The Sacred and the Profane, Essential Writings from Around the World, and the History of Religious Ideas. He also edited the Encyclopedia of Religion.
Ioan P. Couliano chaired the History of Religions and History of Christianity programs at the University of chicago and authored Out of this World and The Free of Ghosis.
AN A TO Z GUIDE TO THE WORLD'S RELIGIONS PAR EXCELLENCE...
"Given Eliade's incredible drive and his command of languages, one can wonder if any other human mind has ever encompassed as many facts about religion as his did. When we join to this his will to communicate that earned for him his first reputation, that of a novelist, we have the makings for this Guide, which stands as the appropriate valedictory from one of our century's foremost scholars. It is at once a reference work to be returned to repeatedly, and a book that can be read from cover to cover as a record of the human venture in its essential religiousness."
