Reseña del libro "St. Macarius the Spirit Bearer: Coptic Texts Relating to Saint Macarius the Great (St. Vladimir's Seminary Press "Popular Patristics" Series). Seminary Press "Popular Patristics" Series)"

These three texts - The Sayings of Saint Macarius, The Virtues of Saint Macarius, and The Life of Saint Macarius of Scetis- provide insight into one of the most venerated saints of the Coptic Church and into the life in the Egyptian monastic communities of the fourth century. This work is a companion volume to Four Desert Fathers, also published by SVS Press, which features the lives of Macarius the Spiritbearer, Macarius of Alexandria, Pambo and Evagrius. The two volumes together, introducing the thought and practice of these desert dwellers through their Sayings, Virtues and Lives, offer the best access to their world.
