Bruce Lincoln is Caroline E. Haskell Distinguished Service Professor of the History of Religions in the Divinity School of the University of Chicago, where he also holds positions in the Center for Middle Eastern Studies, Committee on the Ancient Mediterranean World, Committee on the History of Culture, and in the departments of Anthropology and Classics. Before his arrival at the University of Chicago, Lincoln taught at the University of Minnesota, where he co-founded the Program in Comparative Studies in Discourse and Society.
For many years his primary scholarly concern was the study of Indo-European religion, where his work came to criticize the ideological presuppositions of research on purported Indo-European origins. Over the last decade or so, his work has dealt extensively with methodological problems, and issues concerning religion, power and politics.
