مفهوم المقدس و المدنس عند ميرسيا إليادي : دراسة تحليلية نقدية مقارنة

Abstract EN

This study is an analysis of Mircea Eliade’s writings on the ‘sacred’ and the ‘profane’ through his understanding of primary and ancient religions, on which he has formulated specific archetypes that are known in all religions and beliefs and explained on its basis human behavior and religious behavior.

The study identifies three manifestations of the sacred: sacred symbol, sacred time, and sacred place.

These three reveal what Eliade calls cosmic religion which is the truth of all religions and beliefs.

This study raises the issue of the ‘sacred’ and the ‘profane’ in Islam, compares and critiques Eliade’s concept, defines the sacred and the profane in Islam, and their relation to Muslims’ cosmic concept through the conception of Spirit (ruh).
