Description

""Simon Magus"" is a scholarly essay by G.R.S. Mead that explores the life, philosophy, and teachings of the founder of Simonianism, a Gnostic sect that emerged in the early Christian era. Mead draws on ancient sources to provide a comprehensive overview of Simon's life and teachings, including his purported ability to perform miracles and his claim to be the embodiment of the divine. The book also includes a critical re-evaluation of Simon's philosophy and teachings, with Mead arguing that Simon's ideas were more complex and nuanced than previously thought. Overall, ""Simon Magus"" is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of early Christianity and the development of Gnostic thought.This Is A New Release Of The Original 1922 Edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
