Reviews

Choy's is a book that would benefit any historian of the early middle ages, of monasticism, of church history, or of liturgy. Like the prayers of the nuns and monks which the book so perceptively examines, Intercessory Prayer and the Monastic Ideal in the Time of the Carolingian Reforms is a generous gift to our community. * M.A. Claussen, The Medieval Review * [T]his is a carefully done book, with thoughtful comments on how some ninth-century monastic authors perceived the nature and value of prayer. * Constance B. Bouchard, Church History and Religious Culture * Notwithstanding, Renie Choy has produced an exemplary study, engaging and well-researched, that should be indispensable to the student of early medieval monasticism * Todd Matthew Mattingly, University of Toronto, The Journal of Medieval Monastic Studies *
