Rethinking Gnosticism: An Argument for Dismantling a Dubious Category Paperback - 1999
by Michael Allen Williams
First line
One of the most interesting developments in the history of religion in late antiquity was the emergence of certain forms of religious expression and practice that modern scholarship usually classifies under the rubric "Gnosticism," or Gnosis," or "the Gnostic religion."
From the rear cover
"Michael Williams presents the first treatment of gnosticism in book form that endeavors, and succeeds, to get out of beaten tracks by questioning the very definition and description of this phenomenon. He conducts a detailed analysis of the clichs that have been in circulation for decades and shows convincingly how they have contributed to a distorted and biased approach to the sources. This book will be epoch-making for the field of gnostic studies and should attract a very large reading audience."--Paul-Hubert Poirier, Universit Laval
