| Résumé: | Ioan Petru Culianu (1950-1991) was one of the most talented historians of religions of his generation. The author addresses here a vivid portrait, both scientific and personal, about his friend, retracing, in a special manner, the itinerary of his life and academic career (Bucharest, Milan, Groningen and finally the Divinity School of the University of Chicago, where he was tragically and unfathomably murdered, 21st May 2001) and discussing some delicate topics of his writings (concerning gnosticism, both ancient and modern, otherworldly journeys, the history of magic etc.) and underlines his capacity to represent, on a world-wide scale, the legacy of some great "maîtres à penser" of the 20th century, but also to try to became - especially in the methodological debate around the structure of religion - one of them. |
