Mircea Eliade, as historian of religions, brings us a view of myth which engulfs the pragmatism of Malinowski and the symbolic linguistics of Levi-Strauss, though we must be careful not to infer that they have had any direct influence upon him as an historian of religions. Eliade's distinctive approach as historian of religions is best understood when we notice the pervasive attention that he gives to the element of religious experience in both myth and ritual as symbolic realities.
