Stockholm Studies in Comparative
Religion
Stockholm Studies in Comparative Religion (SSCR) is a peer-
reviewed series initiated by Åke Hultkrantz in 1961. While its earlier
emphasis lay in ethnographic-comparative approaches to religion,
the series now covers a broader spectrum of the history of religions,
including the philological study of discrete traditions, large-scale
comparisons between different traditions as well as theoretical
and methodological concerns in the study of cross-cultural religious
categories such as ritual and myth. SSCR strives to sustain and
disseminate high-quality and innovative research in the form of
monographs and edited volumes, preferably in English, but in
exceptional cases also in French, German, and Scandinavian
languages. SSCR was previously included in the series Acta
Universitatis Stockholmiensis (ISSN 0562–1070). A full list of pub-
lications can be found here: http://www.erg.su.se/publikationer/
