| Résumé: | The article studies the rivalries, that existed between the founding scholars of a sociology of religion and a phenomenology of religion. They did not result from different scholarly conceptions of religions, since both sides accepted the speculative pre-animism of R. R. Marett. If there existed no differences about basic issues, what were the reasons for their rivalries? If we place both paradigms in the context of the problem of historism, we discover, that both are based on two diverse solutions: the phenomenology of religion on the philosophy of life, the sociology of religion on Neo-Kantianism. A detailed study shows that both solutions understood the history of religions differently: one regarded it as symbolic representation of mystical experiences, the other as conception of attitudes to the world. Both interpretations were closely related to two types of critique of modern culture that intended to repatriate religion in modern society either as mysticism or as foundation of different practical rationalities. |
