Baur's unique thesis of a link between ancient and modern religious philosophy, as well as his conception of Gnosticism - developed through dialogues with his predecessors and contemporaries - consolidate \u003ci\u003eChristian Gnosis\u003c\/i\u003e as an important contribution to Christian theology. In this seminal work, written over a hundred years before the manuscript discovery at Nag Hammadi, Baur classifies the gnostic systems in terms of how they conceive the relationship of Christianity to Judaism and paganism, describing them in detail. He then goes on to describe the criticism of and reaction to gnosis in church history, before contending with the modern religious philosophy of his time, discussing Boehme, Schelling, Schleiermacher and Hegel. \u003ci\u003eChristian Gnosis\u003c\/i\u003e is Baur's first great religio-historical study, and Robert Brown's masterful translation ensures the work is as impactful today as it was on its first publication.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"James Clarke Company","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45049125437591,"sku":"9780227177921","price":5768.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780227177921.webp?v=1769224240","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/christian-gnosis-christian-religious-philosophy-in-its-historical-development-9780227177921","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
