Recenzii
This impressive Handbook covers Christian monasticism, 'a complex phenomenon with a long history and an unknowable future' (p. 1) from its origins and early centuries to the present day...The Handbook achieves a balance of narratives of the past and agendas for the future. It can be read on different levels and for different purposes. Scholars of monasticism will find fresh approaches, new perspectives, and an up-to-date guide to specialist research and publication. Students and those new to the history of monasticism will here discover succinct introductions to different periods, movements, spiritualities, archaeologies, discussions of gender, and the joys (and challenges) of interdisciplinarity. The editor is to be congratulated on bringing together a distinguished company of scholars to produce a fine set of essays.
The Oxford Handbook of Christian Monasticism provides striking evidence of the strength and breadth of contemporary research on monasticism and the resilience of the monastic way of life itself. It is a credit to all who were involved in its production, and constitutes an invaluable, indispensable resource for anyone interested in this fascinating subject.
...the book coordinated by Bernice M. Kaczynski is not only a useful tool for theologians, in their historical research of the topic, but also an important work that will surely make any reader, with or without a theological background, to understand this way of life and to see which was the main role played by some of its representatives during the history.
... these volumes do an excellent job of covering so much of what we think of as Christian monasticism. I commend them heartily.
This strength of the book is its versatility. As a history of international monasticism, it can be an introduction for a general reader; as a reference book, it can be consulted for information about a specific topic; with its bibliographies, it will guide the researcher. It will be a widely used resource.
How often can one call a dictionary, encyclopedia, or handbook 'exciting'? Scholars will find in these chapters much of interest, and even some challenges. The authors write clearly; thus the chapters can appeal to a wide audience. The 'Suggested Reading' section within each chapter is very helpful, and those interested in a topic will find plenty to work with in it and the bibliographies; although footnotes are kept to a minimum, each chapter also has an extensive bibliography. The volume most certainly succeeds at 'reinvigorating enquiries that are already underway.' All in all, The Oxford Handbook of Christian Monasticism is a very welcome addition to the bibliographical world and discussions of ancient, medieval, and modern monasticism(s).
Although this is an expensive work, it will be an invaluable help for those working in the field of Christian monasticism today.
