While acknowledging that a return to the "archaic" is no longer possible, Eliade passionately insists on the value of understanding this view in order to enrich our contemporary imagination of what it is to be human. Jonathan Z.

ABOUT THIS BOOK: Going back to the days of prewar Spain, this sensitive novel is the record of an idyllic childhood. Pepe died in a concentration camp just after the Franco victory, leaving a chronicle of his youth. He had lived happily in an ancient part of the land of the hidalgos basking under an interim of peace. Here in a world sheltered by the traditional values of home and family, Pepe felt no breath of the impending storm. He was burdened, not with the torment of social struggle, but with his love for Valentina. He knew hate, but only as a normal son resenting his father's dominion. Even his fights were the natural squabbles of growing boys. These and other glowing memories gave Pepe the strength to endure defeat.(Publisher). …

A collection of essays on the archaic religion of the authors Romanian homeland; long out of print and scarce in trade. 'Few areas have a more enigmatic-or fas-cinating-religious history than that once called Dacia and Romania orientalia, territories that today comprise Romania, Bulgaria, Yugoslavia, and Macedonia. One of the world's most eminent scholars in the history of religions, Mircea Eliade presents in this volume a series of essays illuminating that history. Of interest to both the specialist and the general reader, Zalmoxis is the only work on its subject available in English. Professor Eliade's study covers such topics as the origins of the ethnic name of the Dacians; the cult of Zalmoxis, mysterious god of the ancient Getae; the folk cosmogonic myth in Romanian folklore; the mythico-ritual meanings of legends concerning the founding of the Moldavian state; and the significance of folk beliefs involving magic and ecstasy, the mandragora, and the gathering of medicinal herbs for religious purposes. Professor Eliade has attempted to decipher the meanings of the few available historical documents dealing with the religious history of this area. Further, since the meaning of a belief or a religious behavior pattern does not become manifest except in the light of comparisons, he has considered the documents against the background of the general history of religions. For each of the author's essays some brief text or tradition is used as a clue to reveal a whole hidden world of religious significance. This, in turn, both illuminates the specific text and, through the imaginative and convincing use of cross-cultural parallels, other texts and traditions as well. The majority of essays ultimately touch upon a major methodological question or the illumination of a basic structure in the history of religions.' (From the DJ flap).…
