The Varieties of Religious Experience is considered to be the classic work in the field. To quote Wikipedia, "James was most interested in understanding personal religious experience. The importance of James to the psychology of religion - and to psychology more generally - is difficult to overstate. He discussed many essential issues that remain of vital concern today. What makes James writing so special is that he could take a very complex subject and, without watering it down, make it understandable to 'the rest of us.'"

La "Bibbia", il Libro per eccellenza, ha impregnato di sé la storia dell'Occidente. Lo ha fatto in modo diretto nella sua duplice, forte tensione interna ebraico-cristiana e, in modo indiretto, attraverso gli influssi che ha esercitato sull'islam e sulla stessa cultura laica. Per ragioni storiche in Italia la "Bibbia" non è però entrata a far parte del sapere comune: una lacuna di cui in anni recenti si è avvertita più intensamente la gravità.

The modern conception of sacrifice is at once cast as a victory of self-discipline over desire and condescended to as destructive and archaic abnegation. But even in the Old Testament, the dual natures of sacrifice, embodying both ritual slaughter and moral rectitude, were at odds.

Pursuing the complex lineage of sacrifice in a lyrical discourse, Eagleton focuses on the Old and New Testaments, offering a virtuosic analysis of the crucifixion.

Il libro mette a confronto i passi del vangelo con i passi del Dhammapada, mettendo in risalto sorprendenti similitudini. L'affinitá piú sorprendente fra Gesú e il Buddha riguarda il concetto di amore: entrambi, infatti, predicano la Regola d'Oro, in base a cui ogni uomo deve trattare il suo prossimo come se stesso. Molte delle piú note affermazioni di Cristo, in ordine al fatto di porgere l'altra guancia, di amare i propri nemici; nonchè l'idea che chi di spada ferisce, di spada perisce, si rispecchiano nelle parole del Buddha.

How could he be both an artist and a statesman, a rationalist and an aesthete, a stern moralist yet possessed of deep, and at times dark, passions? And why did scores of thousands of Jews, many of them from traditional, observant backgrounds, embrace Herzl as their leader?
