It was Max Müller who coined the famous motto of the comparative study of religion "He who knows one, knows none." Since its first beginning in the second half of the nineteenth century, the history of religions has always somehow invoked comparative insights as its very raison d'être. The nature of these insights has been under constant debate and at times, scepticism and devastating critique of the more pretentious comparative projects made regionally specialized studies seem the only legitimate enterprise within the discipline. The fact remains, however, that the major general issues addressed by historians of religions are rooted in considerations of a comparative nature. The dossier of papers from an international conference held at the University of Copenhagen discusses tradition as well as new approaches to the fundamental issues of the aim, scope and validity of comparative studies in history of religions. No longer bound to monolithic visions of history and human nature, these papers critically explore the limits and the roles of comparison in the study of religion.

Excerpt from Religion: A Comparative Study The author has a definite purpose in offering this book to the public. He is aware that there are many valuable works on the subject of Comparative Religion. He regards some of them as too voluminous and technical for the average reader who is seeking an intelligent understanding of the Great Religions of the world. Others show unmistakable signs of having been "made in Germany" and as being a part of the destructive higher criticism that has done harm to the cause of Christianity. Some of these volumes are admirable in every way, but are so condensed they do not give a general survey of the field. The present work will doubtless prove equally unsatisfactory to many readers, but if others get as much pleasure and profit from its perusal, as the author has in its preparation, he will be well paid. We have treated the subject under three general heads: I. The Science of Comparative Religion. II. The History of Religions. III. The Comparison of Religions. The religious idea is one and innate, but as this idea is expressed by different peoples it is colored by the medium through which it passes.
