F. Lamplugh

F. Lamplugh is a little-documented author remembered for The Gnôsis of the Light, published in London in 1918. The book presents an English translation of the Untitled Apocalypse from the Codex Brucianus, along with an introduction and notes, and the title page identifies the author as Rev. F. Lamplugh, B.A. (Cantab.).

What can be said with confidence is mostly tied to that work itself: Lamplugh wrote as a clergyman with a Cambridge degree and took on the demanding task of interpreting an ancient Gnostic text for modern readers. The result sits at the crossroads of religious scholarship, mysticism, and translation.

Beyond that, reliable biographical information appears to be scarce in the sources available here. No clearly verified portrait turned up, and even basic personal details such as full name, birth, or death were not confirmed, so it is safest to let the surviving book speak for the author.
