Synopsis

This volume, published in cooperation with the Institute for Monastic Studies and Contemplative Sciences, includes written contributions from a series of lectures on the topic of Egyptian eremitism and monasticism that was organised at the Department of Philosophy, Faculty of Arts, University of Ljubljana, as part of the course “Medieval and Renaissance Philosophy”. The articles address various aspects of the spirituality, philosophy, and literature of early Egyptian desert monasticism, as well as their impact on subsequent history of philosophy and Christianity.

The book concludes with an appendix containing a translation of the famous Rule of Saint Pachomius (Regula Pachomii), which via Saint Benedict’s Rule greatly influenced the further development of the medieval monasticism.
