Viac o knihe

The poem, often referred to as The Hymn of the Soul, narrates the journey of a boy, the son of a king, sent to Egypt to retrieve a pearl from a serpent. Tempted by the Egyptians, he forgets his royal lineage until a letter from his father reignites his memory and purpose. The text, originally in Old Syriac, is structured poetically and explores profound mysteries. This work aims to introduce readers to Gnostic themes, offering inspiration and illumination while encouraging deeper exploration of ancient mystical writings.
