Fear of God

Fear of God

Practicing Emotion in Late Antique Monasticism

Contenu

"Deftly integrating visual and textual sources for monastic emotionality, this study vividly exposes the importance of the sensorial environment in late antique monasticism. Establishing a central role for fear as an emotional practice, it fundamentally shifts our understanding of how Byzantine Christians related with the divine and with one another."--Felicity Harley-McGowan, Lecturer in the History of Art, Yale University

"This is a truly original work, combining textual and archaeological material in search for a better understanding of the mentality and emotional register of the early monastic communities. An excellent contribution to the field."--Samuel Rubenson, Professor Emeritus of Affiliated Church History at Lund University
