The growing interest both in this country and abroad in the historical study of religions is one of the noticeable features in the intellectual phases of the past decades. In accordance with this plan of teaching Hindu religions we have been more prone to ignore than to collect such results of modern scholarship as tend to blur the picture we would show. For a first view of Greek theology Homer is more useful than Preller, and the same is true elsewhere. Above all, as we have said in the Introduction, in regard to many a recent ' interpretation ' of Hindu deities, we are content to be conservative.
