"This is the first book-length treatment in English of the Nag
Hammadi text, The Thunder: Perfect Mind - a poem of "I am"
statements that has garnered a strong following in mainstream
culture. This book offers a fresh, current translation (with
detailed Coptic annotations) and ten chapters of introductory
analysis of the text. Approaching the text from socio-historical,
literary, and postmodern gender-theoretical frameworks, the editors
situate Thunder as an early Christian text - away from the now
suspect category of "Gnosticism" - and offer conclusions on its
possible ancient meanings, as well as its interpretive
possibilities for the present moment"--Provided by publisher.
