Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. ".clearly a must for all libraries.and for all readers interested in spirituality."Religious Studies ReviewJohn Cassian: Conferencestranslation and preface by Colm Luibheidintroduction by Owen Chadwick"I f you wish to achieve true knowledge of scripture you must hurry to achieve unshakable h…umility of heart. This is what will lead you not to the knowledge that puffs a man up but to the lorewhich illumines through the achievement of love."John Cassian (c. 365-c. 435)At the turn of the sixth century the Mediterranean world was witnessing the decline of Roman rule that had formed the bedrock of its civil order. During the chaos of those years, there arose in the deserts of Egypt and Syria monastic movements that offeredmen and women a radical God-centered alternative to the present society. Among the most eloquent interpreters of this new movement to western Europe was John Cassian (c. 365-c.435). Drawing on his own early experience as a monk inBethlehem and Egypt, he journeyed to the West to found monasteries in Marseilles and the region of Provence.Included in this volume is Cassian's masterpiece, the Conferences, which is a study of the Egyptian ideal of the monk.The new translation by Colm Luibheid is coupled with an insightful introduction by the distinguished Regius Professor Emeritus of Modern History, Cambridge University, Owen Chadwick, who writes of Cassian's achievement: "Like the Rule of St. Benedict, his work was a protection against excess and a constant recall to that primitive simplicity where eastern spirituality met western." John Cassian (c. 365-c. 435) journeyed to the West to found monasteries in Marseilles and the region of Provence. Conferences is his masterpiece, a study of the Egyptian ideal of the monk.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. "This series is a testimony to the Spirit breathing where He wills."AmericaJohn Climacus: The Ladder of Divine Ascentedited and translated by Colm Luibheid and Norman Russellnotes on translation by Norman Russell, preface by Kallistos Ware"Prayer is the mother and daughter of tears. It is an… expiation of sin, a bridge across temptation, a bulwark against affliction. It wipes out conflict, is the work of angels, and is the nourishment of everything spiritual."John Climacus (c. 579-649)The Ladder of Divine Ascent was the most widely used handbook of the ascetic life in the ancient Greek Church. Popular among both lay and monastics, it was translated into Latin, Syriac, Arabic, Armenian, Old Slavonic, and many modern languages. It was written while the author (who received his surname from this book) was abbot of the monastery of Catherine on Mount Sinai. As reflected in the title, the ascetical life is portrayed as a ladder which each aspirant must ascend, each step being a virtue to be acquired, or a vice to be surrendered. Its thirty steps reflect the hidden life of Christ himself. This work had a fundamental influence in the particularly the Hesychastic, Jesus Prayer, or Prayer of the Heart movement. Pierre Pourrat in his History of Christian Spirituality calls John Climacus the "most important ascetical theologian of the East, at this epoch, who enjoyed a great reputation and exercised and important influence on future centuries." John Climacus (c. 579-649) was abbot of the monastery of Catherine on Mount Sinai. His Ladder was the most widely used handbook of the ascetical life in the ancient Greek Church.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. "The Gospel of John" has been a source of inspiration, guidance, and knowledge for countless responsive readers. At the same time, it has evoked many different and often contradictory interpretations. In this book, Colm Luibheid reviews the writings of Origen and Augustine, of Thomas Aquinas… and John Calvin, and of twentieth-century scholars such as Rudolf Bultman, John Ashton and Diarmaid McGann. Carefully distilling the variations among each theologian, Luibheid raises questions of interpretation, authority, and authorship. With fresh insight and thoughtful analysis, "Exploring John's Gospel" leads readers into an intellectual and spiritual debate in celebration of the power and genius of the Fourth Gospel.

Paper Back. Condition: New. The importance of the Aereopagita>/i> is in inverse relation to what we actually know of the author -- a sixth-century Syrian monk seems to be the best guess. What is not open to question is the immense role this amazingly brief (and amazingly dense) body of work has played in the development of medie…val Western and Eastern theology. This volume contains it all -- The Divine Names, The Mystical Theology, The Celestial Hierarchy, The Ecclesiastical Hierarchy, and The Letters. Preface by Rene Roques, introductions by Jaroslav Pelikan, Jean Leclercq, and Karl Froehlich. 312 pp.

Paper Back. Condition: New. Read chapter 18 of this manual, ''On Insensitivity,'' and experience honest terror; or chapter 28, ''On Prayer,'' and be reminded how limited and solitary our conception of prayer is, when we come across the following: ''Prayer is by nature a dialog and a union of man with God. Its effect is to hold t…he world together (emphasis ours). prayer is the mother and daughter of tears.'' The work of the seventh-century abbot of St. Catherine's Monastery on Mt. Sinai, The Ladder is probably the single most important text in the spiritual literature of Eastern Christendom. Read in monastic refectories and churches every year during Lent, The Ladder is a text of utmost seriousness and earnestness. Psychological subterfuge and self-delusion are surgically stripped away, leaving the reader two choices: run away or repent. Introduction by Bishop Kallistos Ware.
