Renouncing the World yet Leading the Church : The Monk-Bishop in Late Antiquity PDF
by Andrea Sterk
Description
In the fourth through sixth centuries, the monk-bishop became the dominant model of ecclesiastical leadership in the Eastern Roman Empire and Byzantium.
Focusing on the foundational figures of Basil of Caesarea, Gregory of Nyssa, Gregory of Nazianzus, and John Chrysostom, Sterk explores the grounding for this development.
