Pier Paolo Pasolini's movie #Medea (1969) has been largely based on his reading and uptake of Mircea Eliade's "The Sacred and the Profane" (You can find the full movie in Italian with English Subtitles her on UA-cam)
The criticisms of Eliade all seem to center around the difference between religious experience (something he was keenly interested in), versus theology. Eliade was not a theology guy so I wouldn't expect him to discuss religion in terms of true and false or literalness nor would he seem clear to a spiritually starving secularist.

Thank you so much for this! This is a great support for my course-litterature :)
very good- i was not familiar with these 2.
eliade parallels with cg jung, significantly, from theories to anti-semitic right wing politics.
