Monastic Education in Late Antiquity: The Transformation of Classical Paideia
Monastic Education in Late Antiquity: The Transformation of Classical Paideia
Based on a close rereading of material and textual remains, this volume challenges the interpretation of early Christian monasticism as a movement of anti-intellectual rustics. The various chapters explore how teaching was rooted in classical rhetoric, and examine practices that align with philosophical models of ancient education.
