| Summary: | The paper is an introduction to the unpublished text of Mac Linscott Ricketts’ research interviews with Mircea Eliade, between 1981 and 1984 (with a supplementary conversation with Christinel Eliade dating from 1986). The interviews were edited on the basis of the manuscripts preserved in Ricketts’ archive and are presented here in Romanian translation. The editor’s note is preceded by an overview of the corpus of Eliade’s interviews and followed by a discussion of selected topics from the interviews taken by Ricketts, which contribute to our knowledge of Eliade’s life and work. The second half of the paper analyses two of the less discussed radical criticisms of Eliade during the years 1985-1994, whose authors are referred to in the text of the interviews. In conclusion, it argues that the possibility of such diametrically opposed constructions of a “hidden” Eliade calls for a contextual examination of all the “reconstructions” which claim either to denounce or to annex him. |
