I have been reading a number of Eliade's works recently, and a part of me wishes I had read him much earlier, though I wonder if I had been able to assimilate what he's saying even a few years ago. In any case, I would highly recommend Eliade to anyone looking to concern themselves with mythology and religion.
The interest of this one is of course more specific, but so far it seems like a good choice.

Indeed, I learned of Eliade long ago but put reading him off, aside from one of his works of fiction, which I rather enjoyed. It was reading Guenon's recommendation of his Yoga (it's in the back of one of the Sophia Perennis editions, I can't remember which one it was) that got me to return to Eliade.
I had been wanting to read Rudolf Otto's "The idea of the holy" prior to reading The Sacred and the Profane, but in the end I decided to skip it for now, though I might return to that too.
If you have any good recommendations for related works, I would be glad for them

>>	Anonymous Thu Dec 3 16:33:56 2020 No.16937436 >>16937231 I am still going through the Traditionalists, so I probably can't recommend you anything that you aren't already aware of. Eliade is a very interesting author, though. He's slightly more mainstream as well, which is good.
