Religion & Spirituality Books

Elaine Pagels 
A seminal study that delves into the early Christian texts discovered in Nag Hammadi, Egypt, in 1945. These texts, known as the Gnostic Gospels, present a radically different perspective on the teachings of Jesus Christ compared to the New Testament. Pagels explores how these gospels reveal a variety of early Christian beliefs that emphasize personal spiritual knowledge (gnosis) over the established church doctrines.

Pagels discusses several key themes in these texts, including the portrayal of God as both masculine and feminine, the symbolic interpretation of the resurrection, and the emphasis on inner enlightenment and personal connection to the divine. She also examines the historical and political context that led to the suppression of Gnostic beliefs by orthodox Christianity, arguing that if these texts had been included in the Christian canon, the religion might have developed very differently.

The book is acclaimed for its scholarly yet accessible approach.

The Gnostic Gospels

First American edition, first printing hardcover copy of The Christian Philosophy of Saint Augustine by Etienne Gilson (Random House, 1960). A detailed and sober look at the religious, philosophical and political ideas presented by the Bishop of Hippo in the Middle Ages. Some mild shelf wear to jacket. Boards are straight and clean but with corners slightly bumped. Binding is faintly and partially split at title page, but spine is straight and binding remains fairly strong on the whole. A few pages have small bit of liquid staining to top fore corner on and around page 364. Underlining and margin notes heavily on pages of Chapter One, but appears to not extend much beyond that chapter. See photos for condition.
