Fragments of a Faith Forgotten is a book written by G.R.S. Mead that explores the beliefs and practices of the Gnostics, a group of early Christians who held a different understanding of the nature of God and the universe. The book is a collection of short sketches that provide an overview of Gnostic teachings, including their views on the creation of the world, the role of the divine feminine, and the concept of salvation. Mead draws on a variety of sources, including ancient texts and archaeological findings, to offer insights into the Gnostic worldview. The book also includes a discussion of the historical context in which the Gnostics emerged and the challenges they faced in a world dominated by orthodox Christianity. Overall, Fragments of a Faith Forgotten is a fascinating exploration of a little-known aspect of early Christian history that sheds light on the diversity of religious thought in the ancient world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
