This book provides an anthology of sources highlighting
Manichaeism, a gnostic religion which flourished largely
clandestinely in the Near East, Central Asia, and China until the
beginning of the seventeenth century. It translates and discusses
the importance of a number of Arabic, Syriac, and Hebrew
testimonies for a proper understanding of the cultural importance
of what most scholars consider to be the first 'world religion.'
Many of these sources are translated here into English for the
first time.
