Religious Studies at the University of Vienna: A History of the Department

Religious Studies at the University of Vienna: A History of the Department, published by the department itself in 2020, is an institutional self-account of its own founding and development. As a self-account it carries direct authority for its own timeline and structure. Its limit is that it is not an independent scholarly history of the discipline of religious studies more broadly, and a claim about the field itself, rather than this one department, should draw on outside scholarship.
