Drawing on the testimonies of the early Christian apologists - and on the extant texts - this book attempts to identify the motivating experiences and the fundamental tenets of the original gnostic movement. In what can be only a rough and incomplete guide to a vast terrain, an outline is given of the principal recurrences of the gnostic outlook in the period from late-antiquity to the modern age. In the light of these studies, it is argued that the comprehensive rational synthesis of Hegel can be located on the spectrum of gnostic speculation. The astringent responses of Simone Weil to what she saw as the intellectual, moral and spiritual crises of the twentieth century occupy another segment of the gnostic spectrum. For his part, C. G. Jung argued that his theoretical and practical psychology had been anticipated in the rich deposits of gnostic speculation throughout the ages.
