• catalog abstract "Essays on the lives and beliefs of famous rebels of Christian history, including Simon Magus, Origen, Bruno, Luther, Servetus, Spinoza and Leo Tolstoy. Rebellion against authority is one of the dominant themes of our time. In this study of heresy, Walter Nigg narrates the story of the great rebels within the Christian community, from Simon Magus, the "Father of Heresy," to Leo Tolstoy. He delves into the heretics' motives and aspirations, explores the origins and practices of such mysterious "underground" cults as the Gnostics and the Cathars, and discusses the impact and significance of the Inquisition and the Reformation. His main concern, however, is with the individual dramas that took place within the consciences of the heretics and with their valiant, and often lonely, struggles to maintain their spiritual integrity. Among the noted religious figures who come to life in this book are Peter Abelard, Meister Eckhart, John Wycliffe, Martin Luther, and Blaise Pascal. Through these passionate accounts of spiritual and bodily torment, there emerges the inspiring story of man's quest for God.--From publisher description.".
