  The Gnostic Religion is a study of the heretical world of Gnosticism, treating its literature, symbolic language and main tenets - based on actual Gnostic documents. Gnosticism's complex systems of thought, from creations to restorations, are comprehensively treated. There is also a large section on the relation of the classical mind to gnosticism. This edition was first published in 1963 but not previously available outside North America. This book should be of interest to undergraduates, postgraduates and academics of the classics, religion and theology.
