Some Rough Outlines of the Background of the Gnosis is a book written by G.R.S. Mead, an English scholar of Gnosticism and Hermeticism. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the historical and philosophical background of Gnosticism, a religious movement that emerged in the early Christian era. Mead explores the various cultural and religious influences that shaped Gnostic thought, including Hellenistic philosophy, Jewish mysticism, and Persian dualism. He also delves into the origins of Gnosticism and its relationship to Christianity, as well as the major Gnostic texts and their themes. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of religion and the development of mystical and esoteric traditions.THIS 98 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Fragments of a Faith Forgotten, by G.
