An Introduction to the Pistis Sophia is a book written by G.R.S. Mead that provides an overview of the Gnostic text known as the Pistis Sophia. The Pistis Sophia is a mystical text that was likely written in the second or third century AD and is believed to contain teachings of Jesus Christ that were not included in the canonical gospels. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part providing a brief history of Gnosticism and an overview of the Pistis Sophia, while the second part provides a detailed analysis of the text, including its themes, symbolism, and interpretations. Mead's book is considered an essential resource for anyone interested in the study of Gnosticism and the Pistis Sophia.THIS 58 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Pistis Sophia, by G. R. S.
