Contextualizing Cassian (Oxford Early Christian Studies)

Goodrich examines the attempt by the fifth century writer John Cassian to influence and shape the development of Western monasticism. His close analysis of Cassian's earliest work focuses on his interaction with the values and preconceptions of a traditional Roman elite, as well as his engagement with contemporary writers.
