Fragments of a Faith Forgotten

Free full text

G. R. S. Mead’s study gathers and interprets surviving traces of Gnostic literature, drawing on ancient sources, heresiological accounts, and fragmentary texts. It is significant as an early twentieth-century attempt to reconstruct Gnosticism sympathetically and academically; readers will find concise essays, translations, and contextual discussion of Gnostic beliefs, myths, and sects.
