Descrição: Durkheim's sociology of religion lacks a certain epistemological continuity. Or so it would appear at the first sight, for Durkheim analyzed different aspects of sacred symbolism through different stages of his work. The article presents us with the continuity of Durkheim's sociology of religion, as the author investigates shifts in Durkheim's focus of interest. Thus, the three channels through which religion frames the construction of society & social reality gradually come into view. The initial was the "meaning," generated by sacred symbols (that frame the individual), followed by "ideology" (that renders relations among social groups). These two aspects predominate in Durkheim's early works, while later, he moves further to discover the third channel of sacred symbolism -- "mythology," ie, the imaginary concept that frames the relations between individuals & their reference groups. 35 References.
