Gnosticism - The meaning of 'gnosis'.
The word gnosticism is a modern construction, though based on an antiquated linguistic expression; it comes from the Greek word meaning 'knowledge', gnosis (γνώσις). However, gnosis itself refers to a very specialised form of knowledge, deriving both from the exact meaning of the original Greek term and its usage in Platonist philosophy.
Unlike modern English, ancient Greek was capable of discerning between several different forms of knowing. ...

|  |  |  | 207: Encyclopedia II - Gnosticism - OverviewThe complex nature of gnostic teaching and the fact that much of the material relating to the schools comprising Gnosticism has traditionally come from critiques by orthodox Christians make it difficult to be precise about early Christian gnostic systems. Irenaeus (Adversus Haereses) described several different schools of 2nd century gnosticism in disparaging and often sarcastic detail while contrasting them with Christianity to their detriment. Despite this modern discussion of gnosticism at first relied heavily on Irenaeus and other ...

|  |  |  | 207: Encyclopedia II - Satavahana - Early rulersAfter becoming independent around 230 BCE, Simuka, the founder of the dynasty, conquered Maharashtra, Malwa and part of Madhya Pradesh. He was succeeded by his brother Kanha (or Krishna) (r. 207-189 BCE), who further extended his kingdom to the west and the south.
His successor Sātakarnī I defeated the Sunga dynasty of North India, and performed several Vedic sacrifices at huge cost, including the Horse Sacrifice. By this time the dynasty was well established, with its capital at Pratishthānapura (Paithan) in Maharashtra, and its power spreading into all of South India. The Pūrānas list 30 rulers of this line. Many are known ...

| |  |  |  | 207: Encyclopedia II - Satavahana - Conflict with the Shakas Yavanas and PahlavasThe first century CE saw the incursion of the Sakas of Central Asia into India, where they formed the dynasty of the Western Kshatrapas. The four immediate successors of Hāla (r. 20-24 CE) had short reigns totalling about a dozen years. About this time the kingdom lost some of its territory, including Malwa, to the Western Kshatrapas.
Eventually Gautamiputra (Sri Yagna) Sātakarni (r. 106-130 CE) defeated the Western Kshatrapa ruler Nahapana, restoring the prestige of his dynasty by reconquering a large part of the former dominions o ...

|  |  |  | 207: Encyclopedia II - Satavahana - Cultural achievementsOf the Sātavāhana kings, Hāla (r. 20-24 CE) is famous for compiling the collection of Prakrit poems known as the Gāhā Sattasai ( Sanskrit: Gāthā Saptashatī), although from linguistic evidence it seems that the work now extant must have been re-edited in the succeeding century or two.
The Sātavāhana kings are also remarkable for their contributions to Buddhist art and architecture. The great stupas in the Krishna River Valley were built by them, including the stupa at Amravati in Andhra Pradesh. The stupas were decorated in marble slabs and sculpted with scenes from the life of the Buddha, p ...

| |  |  |  | 207: Encyclopedia II - Gnosticism - Gnosticism in pop cultureGnosticism has also seen something of a resurgence in popular culture in recent years. This may be related, certainly, to the sudden availibility of gnostic texts to the reading public, following the emergence of the Nag Hammadi library. Nevertheless, this dissemination of material has not necessarily resulted in a wider understanding of the intricacies of gnosticism; often the influence of gnosticism on modern culture dervies from an understandng of the movement largely subject to the influences of the ancient heresiologists, as being obses ...

In the next year, the powerful warlord Cao Cao, who had by then occupied the entire northern China, launched a campaign against Jingzhou (荆州, present day Hubei and Hunan).

He was created the Duke of Anle (安樂公), and his sons and grandsons were created marquesses. According to the Spring and Autumn Annals of Han and Jin (漢晉春秋) by Xi Zuochi (习鑿齒), Sima Zhao, the Duke of Jin and de facto ruler of the Kingdom of Wei, one day invited Liu Shan and his followers to a feast, during which Sima Zhao arranged to have entertainers perform traditional Shu music and dance. The former Shu officials present were all saddened, but Liu Shan was visibly unmoved. When asked by ...

Gnosticism - A typological model: the main features of gnosticism.
Though difficulties have arisen in offering a definitive, categorical definition of gnosticism (see below), various strategies have been employed in overcoming the problem, with varying degrees of success. It is therefore appropriate to offer a typological model of those ancient philosophical movements typically called gnostic; the model offered is adapted from Christoph Markschies' version, as described in Gnosis: An Introduction:

|  |  |  | 207: Encyclopedia II - Gnosticism - 'Gnosticism' as a potentially flawed categoryIn 1966 in Messina, Italy, a conference was held concerning systems of gnosis. Among its several aim were the need to incept a program to translate the recently-acquired Nag Hammadi libary (see above) and the need to arrive at an agreement concerning an accurate definition of gnosticism. This was in answer to the tendency, prevalent since the eighteenth century, to use the term 'gnostic' less as its origins implied, but rather as an interpretive category for contemporary philosophical and religious movements. Thus in 1835 New Testamen ...

There follows a list of those figures who are known to have undertaken a study of gnosticism, and who have occasionally incorporated elements of gnostic systems into their own work, or whose own work subsequently contains recognizably gnostic traits.
Carl Jung and his associate G. R. S. Mead worked on trying to understand and explain the Gnostic faith from a psychological standpoint. Jung's "analytical psychology" in many ways schematica ...

A war indemnity of 10,000 talents was imposed, her navy was limited to 10 ships to ward off pirates, and she was forbidden from raising an army without Rome's permission. Numidia took the opportunity to capture and plunder Carthaginian territory. Half a century later, when Carthage raised an army to defend itself from these incursions, it was destroyed by Rome in the Third Punic War. Rome on the other hand, by her victory, had taken a ...

Gnosticism - The development of the Syrian-Egyptian school.
Though the notion of a direct inheritance between the schools described above is disputed, Bentley Layton has sketched out a relationship between the various gnostic movements in his introduction to The Gnostic Scriptures (SCM Press, London, 1987). In this model, Classical Gnosticism and The School of Thomas antedated, and influenced the development of, Valentinus (whom Layton called 'the great [gnostic] reformer' and 'the focal point' of gnostic ...

If he fought against the North while the Nanman people rebelled, then the Nanman people would march further and perhaps even press into areas surrounding the capital. So rather than embarking on a Northern Campaign, Zhuge Liang led an army to pacify the south first.
Ma Su (Ma Liang's brother) proposed the plan that Zhuge Liang should work toward getting the rebels to join him rather than killing all of them and he took this plan. Zhuge Liang defeated the rebel leader, Meng Huo, seven different times, but released hi ...
