作者介紹
作者介紹 George Robert Stowe Mead (1863-1933) was an English historian, writer, editor, translator, and an influential member of the Theosophical Society. He worked closely with H. P. Blavatsky, founder of the theosophical society, as her private secretary, aided in the publication of her magnum opus "The Secret Doctrine." In 1909 he helped lead a major exodus from the Theosophical Society in protest of Ms. Besant and C.W. Leadbeater, and formed the Quest Society. He was a prolific writer, publishing countless articles in theosophical magazines along with several ground-breaking books, including the Pistis Sophia, Thrice-Greatest Hermes, Orpheus, and Fragments of a Faith Forgotten, among others. His works remain influential in the fields of Hermeticism, Gnosticism and Early Christianity.
