Libro: Pistis Sophia: A Gnostic Gospel: Gnostic Texts on the Tradition of Mary Magdalene, Jesus, and His Disciples (The Gnoticism Books Series).

Pistis Sopha A Gnostic Gospel is a startling blend of primitive Christianity and Hellenic Paganism, with other elements such as reincarnation, Astrology, Mystery religion and Hermetic magic. The Goddess makes an appearance in the guise of Sophia, a fallen angel.

This is one of the most historically important among gnosticism books, not only in terms of Christianity but also with respect to the development of Western religion. This is G.R.S. Mead's translation of the most extensive Gnostic scripture available until the discovery of Nag Hammadi texts in 1945.

It chronicles the teachings of Jesus, who explains life's mysteries to his disciples and Mary Magdalene. Their discussions take place after Christ's resurrection and include accounts of his ascension into heaven.

The text is notable because the female disciples of Jesus are treated as active participants in the discourse, in a way that would be unimaginable in later Christianity. Tensions between the men and women disciples are not glossed over. There is a part where Peter complains that Mary and the other women disciples are monopolizing the discussion with Jesus: "My Lord, we will not endure this woman, for she taketh the opportunity from us and hath let none of us speak, but she discourseth many times." Later, Mary expresses her misgivings about Peter: "I am afraid of Peter, because he threatened me and hateth our sex."
