Opis

Excerpt from Pistis Sophia It is with somewhat of the feelings of one setting forth on a forlorn hope that the writer ventures to plunge into the chaos of syncretism generally classified under the vague term Gnosticism. Indeed no subject connected with the history of religion is fraught with greater difficulty, as may be seen from the comparative paucity of general works on Gnosticism from the pens of European scholars. In fact the English reader, outside of a few translations, must content himself with Burton's Bampton Lectures, Mansel's Gnostic Heresies, Norton's History of the Gnostics, King's Gnostics and their Remains, and an article by Salmon. Not only did the persecution of the early Gnostics cause the loss of nearly all their documents, but also some of the most important writings of the Fathers, which might have thrown more light on the subject, have disappeared; among these may be mentioned the Syntagma of Justin, and the Syntagma of Hippolytus. Our chief authorities among the Fathers are Justin Martyr, Irenćus, Clement of Alexandria, Tertullian, Origen, Hippolytus, Philaster, Epiphanius, Jerome and Theodoret.
