Book
Paper Back. Condition: New. These newly-translated texts tell us about a time (ca. 435) and a place (the Jura Mountains in eastern France) far off the beaten path of most of what we know of early monasticism. Fifty years before the birth of St. Benedict, we have evidence of a Western monastic life and rule that mentions early Egyptian sources, the rule of St. Basil, the writings of John Cassian, and the influence of the Fathers at Lerins, one of the earliest monastic communities in France. Attached as an appendix is a winsome letter dating to 412 A.D. by a certain Eucherius, bishop of Lyon, entitled ''In Praise of the Desert.'' 240 pp.
