Description

Magazine visible in the photo, titled Religions & Histoire, issue number 1, dated March-April 2005, presented in a flexible hardcover with a predominant red, ochre, and gold color scheme. The front cover displays a central illustration of a religious figure surrounded by stylized flames on a golden background, evoking an oriental or Persian iconographic style. The layout features a black left-hand band with yellow and red inserts, highlighting several thematic features related to the history of religions.

Among the topics featured on the cover: Biblical figures in the Quran, The birth of the world in Greek mythology, Judaism and Christianity: common origin and separation, as well as a feature on the Olmec jaguar-baby, a mythological creature. The magazine's title is printed in capital letters, with alternating colors (yellow, green, red) on a colored background. In the top right corner, a blue circular sticker indicates "NOUVEAU" (NEW).

The cover also shows a barcode in the bottom right, accompanied by the original price (€8.50). The overall visual condition of the cover appears glossy, with no tears or major stains on the visible part, and reflections due to lighting. No other obvious flaws are visible on this side.

This magazine is a specialized periodical on the history of religions, spirituality, mythology, and ancient civilizations, offering illustrated analyses and thematic features. The format is that of a modern review with a neat graphic presentation, typical of publications from the early 2000s.

Condition

Did you know? The "Religions & Histoire" magazine was launched in 2005 with the goal of offering in-depth features on global religious traditions, combining historical, archaeological, and anthropological approaches. This first issue focused on biblical figures in the Quran, a subject rarely treated in a cross-disciplinary manner in general publications.
