Visio Dei tra enochismo e gnosi eretica

Abstract

The contribution aims at providing an in-depth analysis of the theological and narrative motif of the visio Dei in different gnostic works, composed both in Greek and in Coptic. Such a relevant theologoumenon is shared by the gnostic speculation and by the complex tradition gemming from the Enochic writings. This continuity is historically scrutinized and recognised as one of the most fundamental and crucial contribution for the formation of gnostic doctrine and identity.
