Reviews

Professor Murzaku fills a significant void in her recent marvelous collection of essays on the role of monasticism in Eastern Europe and the former Soviet states...Monasticism in Eastern Europe and the Former Soviet Republics is a must have for scholars in the area...I know of no other work available in English that details monasticism in ECE and FSR in an inter-disciplinary forum with attention to both Orthodox and Catholic expressions of monastic life... All theological and university libraries ought to have a copy for reference, in addition to those who research and teach in the areas of Eastern Christianity, ecumenism, spirituality and ecclesiology...I highly recommend this text.
