Riassunto

This book is about Gnostic prayers and hymns from the beginning of Christianity. The authors of these hymns and prayers were branded as heretics and thrown out of the church. However, many documents of Gnostic spirituality have survived, sometimes handed down by the polemical reports of the church fathers. These documents have become especially accessible since the spectacular discoveries at Nag Hammadi in 1945.
