Seller's Description:
New. One of our most important sources for the history of earliest monasticism. Palladius (b. ca. 364) was a student of Evagrius, and soon after embracing monasticism in Palestine traveled to Egypt to encounter for himself--in a manner to be repeated later by John Cassian and John Moschus--the already venerable Fathers of the Egyptian desert. The Lausiac History is the record of these encounters. 265 pp.
