Update on Eliade and fascism

I've just posted an update to an old post on Mircea Eliade and fascism, with links to three interesting articles or books that deal with the question of Eliade's connection to Rumanian fascism.

  1. Thanks for the posts and comments. As you know, Jonathan Z. Smith recently died. Smith, apparently, appreciated Eliade. How does that fit?

  2. That's a good question, but I don't know the answer to it. I haven't looked to see if Smith published anything about Eliade's views.

  3. J. Z. Smith wrote an Introduction to the 2005 edition of Eliade's Myth of the Eternal Return, pages ix-xxi (in part readable at amazon).
