From East to West

A History of Monasticism

The principles and practices of monasticism – obedience, celibacy and withdrawal from society – long pre-date Christianity. This history, by a Catholic monk who worked in India, Congo and Madagascar, surveys its origin in Hinduism, Buddhism and Judaism. After examining the links between Eastern and Christian monasticism, it follows its development from the founders of the fourth century through the establishment of the Benedictine order to the challenges it faces today.
