Beschreibung

Monasticism is a vital feature of Christian spiritual life
and has its origins in the Oriens Christianus. The
present volume contains studies on Armenian Monasticism from
various perspectives. The task is not only to produce
historical studies. The aim is also to contribute to and
reflect on monasticism today. Authors come from the Armenian
Apostolic Catholicosate of Ejmiacin, the Holy See of
Cilicia, the Armenian Patriarchate of Jerusalem, and the
Armenian-Catholic Church as well as from the Benedictine and
Franciscan Orders of the Catholic Church. The experts
reflected on the glorious past of Armenian monasticism and
agreed to evaluate future challenges ecumenically to give
more insight into both past and present Armenian
monasticism.
