Description
The transition from a pagan civilization of great antiquity to our Christianized one is historically denoted as ?The Dark Ages.? Why ?dark?? What was lost? Dreaming Sophia tells the story of that loss. It exposes the most massive campaign of cultural eradication the world has ever seen?before or since. Dreaming Sophia investigates?for the first time?the real roots of the ecological crisis that now threatens life on the planet. It takes us right into the realm of the predator reality in which we now live, engulfed and lost to the point of either denial or impotent fury. In his riveting account of who the Gnostics really were and what it was that they were protesting, John Lash locates who we once were and now are in a vast arc of history from the Axial Age to the present moment of unilateralist America?a span of 2,500 years. No scholar has yet plumbed the Gnostic texts of the Nag Hammadi Library for the profound cosmological myth of our origins and true nature.
