Excerpt from Comparative Religion, Its Method and Scope: A Paper Read (in Part) At the Third International Congress of the History of Religions, Oxford, September 17, 1908
A difficult problem has been confronting students of religion for a considerable period, and the embarrassment of the situation has been steadily growing. If we shall find ourselves able to reach and register a verdict, or if our present discussion should succeed only in making more clear the principles that underlie a widely prevalent diversity of opinion, we shall assist in removing an issue by which many are still perplexed, and in lending impetus to a line of inquiry that desires and deserves our help. To me, it is a source of unbounded satisfaction that room has been made in our programme, this year, for several papers that deal expressly with Comparative Religion. One reader has chosen for his subject 'A Science of Comparative Religion,' and I know in advance that he is going to bring us an affirmative answer to that query. It has long been one of my dreams that I might yet see this vast and expanding department of investigation accorded that place and prominence to which it is entitled. The action of the Executive Committee of this Congress - their courageous new departure, reference to which has already been made - cannot fail to contribute materially towards the realization of this hope. Further subdivision of the work undertaken by these quadrennial conferences will eventually follow, with results of the very first importance for the prosecution of our studies.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the nature and scope of the emerging field of Comparative Religion, examining its relationship to the established discipline of the History of Religions. The author argues that Comparative Religion is not merely a subset of its predecessor but a distinct discipline with its unique methodology and focus on the critical comparison of religious beliefs and practices. Through this comparative approach, the book offers insights into the similarities and differences among the world's religions, challenging traditional assumptions and shedding light on their historical development and social significance. By analyzing religious phenomena from a broader perspective, the book contributes to our understanding of the human experience of the sacred and the role of religion in shaping human history and culture.
