Christoph Markschies continues his studies on the history of Valentinian Gnosisticism with this volume about Ptolemy (second century AD). Close scrutiny of surviving texts reveals an independent Christian thinker who thought on the level of contemporary popular philosophy. The analyses are complemented by studies on the early history of this Gnostic school.
