Description

This text aims to add impetus to the investigation of early Christianity and the questions surrounding the origin and nature of gnosticism. The study includes: a departure from the traditional exegesis of "Acts 8, 5-24" (the first narrative source of Simon), and the later - following - reports of ancient Christian writers; an overview of the literature of Graeco-Roman antiquity to determine the contribution of "magic" and "the Magoi" in the development of perceptions and descriptions of Simon; and the inclusion of social science explanation models and modern estimations of "identity", in a creative approach to questions surrounding the phenomenon of Simon.
