This article outlines the place of Christian Gnostic belief and practices in the processes of self-definition and institutionalisation that took place within the early history of Christianity and makes a plea to reinstate the "heretics" to their rightful place in any academic discussion of the history and beliefs of Christianity. | Publication Type: | Journal Article | Source of Publication: | Journal of Religious History, 29(2), p. 117-128 | Publisher: | Wiley-Blackwell Publishing Asia | Place of Publication: | Australia | ISSN: | 1467-9809 0022-4227 |
