"Professor Geo Widengren (1907-1996), holder of the chair in History of Religions
and Psychology of Religions at Uppsala University between 1940 and 1973, is one of
Sweden's best-known scholars in the field of religious studies. His involvement in
the start of the IAHR and publications on topics such as the phenomenology of religions,
Iranian studies and Middle Eastern Religions make Widengren one of the founding fathers
of the History of Religions as an academic discipline. This volume pays tribute to
Widengren's academic achievements and critically discusses his work in light of the
latest academic findings and research.Contributors are Daniel Andersson, Giovanni
Casadio, Clemens Cavallin, Göran Eidevall, Satoko Fujiwara, René Gothóni, Jan Hjärpe,
Christer Hedin, Anders Hultgård, Tim Jensen, Albert de Jong, Einar Thomassen, Mihaela
Timus, Chiara Ombretta Tommasi"
