| Summary: | "The Asketikon of St. Basil the Great comprises a new English translation of this work which is so pivotal in the doctrine and practice of Christian monasticism, together with studies which re-examine the emergence of monasticism in Asia Minor, of which the Asketikon was the crowning achievement. The Regula Basili, translated by Rufinus from Basil's Small Asketikon, is closely compared with the Greek text of the longer edition, as a means to tracing the development of ideas."--BOOK JACKET |
