Texts and Translations Series

The Texts and Translations series is devoted to making available to both research scholars and classroom teachers significant primary texts in translation, important secondary scholarship on religious texts, and reprints of major works in the field. Given the breadth of this mandate, the series favors no particular methodological approach, and solicits works in all areas of religious studies. Recent reprints in the Texts and Translations series include Hermann Cohen's Religion of Reason; J. Samuel Preus's Explaining Religion; Wilhelm Bousset's The AntiChrist Legend; and Gerardus van der Leeuw's Sacred and Profane Beauty: The Holy in Art. Recent translations include Schleiermacher's Dialectic; a Tamil poem and commentary, The Study of Stolen Love; and Livia Kohn's The Daoist Monastic Manual: A Translation of the Fengdoro Kejie. The series has also recently published the nineteenth-century Sabbath Journal of Judith Lomax, as well as collections such as W.S.F. Pickering's Durkheim on Religion; Nancy Frankenberry and Hans Penner's Language, Truth, and Religious Belief; Stephen C. Berkwitz's The History of the Buddha's Relic Shrine: A Translation of the Sinhala Thupanamsa; and Schleiermacher's Dialectic, or The Art of Doing Philosophy.
