Norea is one of the female characters who appears in gnostic mythologies. Her character occurs in few texts, such as HypArch and the Thought of Norea, and she has received little attention so far, often overshadowed by the imposing presence of characters like Sophia, Barbelo and Eve. She is the daughter of the spiritual Eve, she who succeeded in withdrawing from the Archons' rape; Norea is also the sister of Seth, the man whose seed begot the gnostic offspring. Unlike other Gnostic texts, HypArch tells that Norea receives the Revelation from the angel Eleleth: she is designed to be the one from whom the offspring that, one day, can go back to Pleroma to contemplate the Father Abyss, will descend. This presentation will focus on Norea's role as the receiver of salvific knowledge/revelation. The presentation aims first to understand the role that gnostic authors attributed to the concept of Revelation and its heft. More specifically, the aspect of the Revelation which is going to be studied in the presentation, is the one which focuses on the announcement and the transmission of the divine message to a female character. Norea, in this case, is not seen as a harbinger of chaos and destruction like Sophia was, but a guardian and transmitter of salvation. This perspective gives way for both historical-theological observations and social ones, about women's role in early-Christian soteriologies, underlining the everchanging meanings of the feminine.
