Discovered in Egypt in 1945, the fascinating and challenging Nag Hammadi writings forever changed our understanding of early Christianity. State-of-the-art and the only volume of its kind, Introduction to "Gnosticism": Ancient Voices, Christian Worlds guides students through the most significant of the Nag Hammadi texts. Employing an exceptionally lucid and accessible writing style, Nicola Denzey Lewis groups the texts by theme and genre, places them in the broader context of the ancient world, and reveals their most inscrutable mysteries.Ideal for use in courses in Early Christianity/Origins of Christianity, Christianity to 1500, Gnostic Gospels, Gnosticism, Early Christian Writings, Orthodoxy and Heresy, and New Testament Studies, Introduction to "Gnosticism" is enhanced by numerous pedagogical features, including images of the manuscripts, study and discussion questions, annotated bibliographies, tables, diagrams, and a glossary.

In The Early Modern Invention of Late Antique Rome, Nicola Denzey Lewis challenges the common understanding of late antique Christianity as dominated by the Cult of Saints. Popularized by historian Peter Brown, the Cult of the Saints presupposes that a 'corporeal turn' in the 4th century CE initiated a new sense of the body (even the corpse or bone) as holy. Denzey Lewis argues that although present elsewhere in the late Roman Empire, no such 'corporeal turn' happened in Rome until the early modern period. The prevailing assumption that it did was fostered by the apologetic concerns of early modern Catholic scholars, as well as contemporary attitudes towards death, antiquity, and the survival of the Church against secularism. Denzey Lewis delves deeply into the world of Roman late antique Christianity, exploring how and why it differed from the set of practices and beliefs we have come to think flourished in this crucial age of Christianization.

Pagels The Gnostic Gospels ( Die gnostischen Evangelien), welches erstmals 1979 veröffentlicht wurde, ist ein richtungsweisendes Werk der Religionswissenschaften. Es machte nicht nur die Nag Hammadi-Schriften und den Gnostizismus zu populären Themen der modernen Kultur, sondern lud auch dazu ein, das frühe Christentum aus einer neuen Perspektive zu überdenken. Nach der Veröffentlichung von The Gnostic Gospels weitete Elaine Pagels ihre Forschungsarbeit in verschiedene Richtungen aus, von Vorstellungen der Sexualität im frühen Christentum und Identitätspolitik bei der Schaffung der Figur des Satan bis zur Rolle von Ritualen in Nag Hammadi-Texten und, in neuester Zeit, dem Judasevangelium und antiken Apokalypsen. Die Beiträge in diesem Band erfassen jede Phase von Pagels weitem Forschungsfeld und bieten eine kritische Einschätzung des Gebiets des "Gnostizismus-Studien". Die Untersuchungen beinhalten neue Interpretationen der Nag Hammadi-Texte und aktuelle Analysen antiker häresiologischer Literatur.
