Review

"This book is a valuable resource for those interested in the Manichaean religion." - Birger A. Pearson, University of California

Book Description

Founded by Mani (c. AD 216 276), a Syrian visionary of Judaeo-Christian background who lived in Persian Mesopotamia, Manichaeism spread rapidly into the Roman Empire in the third and fourth centuries AD and became one of the most persecuted heresies under Christian Roman emperors. The religion established missionary cells in Syria, Egypt, North Africa and Rome and has in Augustine of Hippo the most famous of its converts. This is the first ever collection of sources for this religion and draws from material mostly unknown to English-speaking scholars and students.
