"This volume explores the ways in which religion became the o bject of scientific research in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Most obvious is the development of an increasin…g autonomous science of religion (with founding fathers like Max Muller and C. P. Tiele) . However, with anthropology (Tylor, Frazer) , sociology (Durkheim, Max Weber) , and psychology (William James) , relgion also came to be seen as a separate entity to be studied comparatively . To capture this wide field this book focuses on the emergence of the discourse on religion in a broad academic context, among different disciplines. The emphasis is on general socio-historical devel opments, rather than on individual biographies. Part One deals with the institutionalization of science of religion in France, Britain, and the Netherlands. Part Two focuses on boundary disputes betwe en the emerging 'sciences of religion'. Part Three examines new conceptualizations of religion underlying the new endeavour ('ritual', 'magic', 'survival') . Religion - philosophy - history - 19th century - 20th century. Emile Burnouf. Adolph Moses. Eliza Sunderland. ; 8vo; 318 pp.
