Abstract

Mukayeseli metot, Dinler Tarihi alanında yapılan çalışmalarda sıkça
uygulanan bir araştırma yöntemidir. Bu yöntem sayesinde farklı dinlere ait
inanç ve uygulamalar arasındaki benzerlikler ve farklılıklar ortaya
konulabilmektedir. Ayrıca değişik dinlerdeki kavramların geçirdiği anlamsal
değişikliklerin tespiti de yapılabilmektedir. Bir takım benzer ve farklı
yönleri ihtiva ettiği ileri sürülen avatara ve enkarnasyon öğretisi bu konuda
önemli bir örnek teşkil etmektedir. Bu makalede, G. Parrinder’in bakış
açısıyla, Hintlilerin avatara öğretisi ile Hıristiyanların enkarnasyon inancı
arasındaki benzerlik ve farklılık iddialarını ortaya koymaya gayret edeceğiz.

A Comparative Case in the History of Religions: Avatara and Incarnation from G. Parrinder’s Point of View

Year 2019, Volume: 1 Issue: 1, 41 - 58, 06.08.2019
https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.3360696

Abstract

The comparative method
is a research method that is frequently applied in the field of History of
Religions. Thanks to this method, similarities and differences between beliefs
and practices of different religions can be revealed. Besides, semantic changes
of some terms in different religions can be determined. In this regard, the
case of avatara and incarnation doctrines, which contain a number of
similarities and differences, is an important example. In this article, from G.
Parrinder's point of view, we will try to put forward the claims of
similarities and differences between the Indians' doctrine of avatara and the
Christians’ doctrine of the incarnation
.
