A monk who has striven to live according to the Rule of Benedict for thirty-five years, Father Kardong relates it to modern monastic life while examining the sources (Cassian, Augustine, and Basil) Benedict used to establish his Rule. Overviews - summaries of notes, source criticism, or structural criticism - follow some chapters, and a large bibliography of the current scholarship and source references are also included.
also includes the Latin text of the
Regula Benedicti
. This reference work is invaluable to libraries and to those who are called to interpret the Rule. It will be opened again and again. Indexed.
