An active matrix type liquid crystal display device capable of reducing power consumption and eliminating switching loss so as not to cause surge when stepwise changing the gate pulse supplied to a gate line during selection. The device includes, as the selection voltage supply circuit ( 18 ), a first power source (VGH 0 ) for supplying a predetermined selection voltage and a second power source (VANA) for supplying voltage lower than the selection voltage by a predetermined value, so that voltage from the second power source is always applied to an output point (VG 1 ) of the selection voltage supply circuit and voltage from the first power source is superimposed during a time shorter than the selection period from the beginning of the selection time, thereby applying stepwise gate pulses (GPn, GPn+1, GPn+2, . . . ) to the predetermined selected gate lines (Xn, Xn+1, Xn+2, . . . ).
