Reviews
Not since Elaine Pagels's ground-breaking and best-selling The Gnostic Gospels (1979) has there been a work that communicates so clearly the content and significance of the "Gnostics" for our understanding of early Christian history. The public and the academy need The Gnostics ., Perhaps the finest aspect of this book is the way that Brakke successfully nuances the conflict models of early Christian history that remain current in most introductory texts. Rather than merely keying students to the varieties of early Christianity, Brakke introduces beginners to a more open narrative that has emerged recently. This model focuses on the agonistic production of orthodox and heterodox identities through processes of textual production, interpretation, ritual, and so forth. Brakke accomplishes this through a style that is lucid without falling into oversimplification., Brakke has a growing reputation for his studies on the history and literature of ancient Christianity, and he moves easily among the sources, making good sense of the sometimes scanty evidence... The Gnostics is a book to be warmly commended to those who have an interest in the development of Christianity.

Synopsis
Who were the Gnostics? And how did the Gnostic movement influence the development of Christianity in antiquity? Is it true that the Church rejected Gnosticism? This book offers an illuminating discussion of recent scholarly debates over the concept of "Gnosticism" and the nature of early Christian diversity. Acknowledging that the category "Gnosticism" is flawed and must be reformed, David Brakke argues for a more careful approach to gathering evidence for the ancient Christian movement known as the Gnostic school of thought. He shows how Gnostic myth and ritual addressed basic human concerns about alienation and meaning, offered a message of salvation in Jesus, and provided a way for people to regain knowledge of God, the ultimate source of their being. Rather than depicting the Gnostics as heretics or as the losers in the fight to define Christianity, Brakke argues that the Gnostics participated in an ongoing reinvention of Christianity, in which other Christians not only rejected their ideas but also adapted and transformed them. This book will challenge scholars to think in news ways, but it also provides an accessible introduction to the Gnostics and their fellow early Christians.

- a***r (250)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaBeautiful items, just as described & pictured. Thanks to superior packaging---lots of bubble wrap and packing paper---these fragile pieces withstood excessive manhandling by USPS. Seller shipped promptly, but USPS kept bouncing package back and forth between two different distribution centers. Took exceedingly long to arrive, all due to USPS, not the shipper. Great experience with this seller, though. Thanks a million!
- e***e (37)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificada⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Outstanding Seller! I couldn’t be happier with this purchase! The shoes arrived quickly and were exactly as described—brand new, pristine, and an incredible value. What really impressed me was the care taken in packaging: each shoe was individually wrapped in bubble wrap and securely boxed, showing true attention to detail and customer satisfaction. Highly recommend this seller for their professionalism, fast shipping, and unbeatable deals. Will definitely shop here again!
