Synopsis
Gnosticism, steeped as it is in individualism, introspection, and personal revelation, is especially appealing to personal seekers who have turned away from formal religion. The publication of several best-selling Gnosticism-related studies and the roaring success of THE DA VINCI CODE have dusted up great public interest in the Gnostic texts in a public that is increasingly turned off by orthodoxy, dogma, and big religion. Poet and literature professor Willis Barnstone and Gnostic scholar Marvin Meyer present an exhaustive compendium of primary-source Gnostic texts, artfully translated by Barnstone, and include a glossary of terms and bibliography.

Publisher's Note
Gnosticism was a wide-ranging religious movement of the first millennium CE-with earlier antecedents and later flourishings-whose adherents sought salvation through knowledge and personal religious experience. Gnostic writings offer striking perspectives on both early Christian and non-Christian thought. For example, some Gnostic texts suggest that god should be celebrated as both mother and father, and the self-knowledge is the supreme path to the divine. Only in the past fifty years has it become clear how far the Gnostic influence spread in ancient and medieval religions-and what a marvelous body of scriptures it produced. This is the first time that such a rich and diverse collection of Gnostic texts have been brought together in a single volume, in translations that allow the spirit of the original texts to shine. The selections gathered here, in poetic, readable translation, represent Jewish, Christian, Hermetic, Mandaean, Manichaean, Islamic, and Cathar expressions of Gnostic spirituality. Their regions of origin include Egypt, the Greco-Roman world, the Middle East, Syria, Iraq, China, and France. Also included are introductions, notes, an extensive glossary, and a wealth of suggestions for further reading.
