Children and Family in Late Antique Egyptian Monasticism

Beschreibung

The first book about children in one of the birthplaces of Christian monasticism, Egypt. Uses diverse written and visual sources to demonstrate how early Egyptian monasteries provided an intergenerational continuity of social, cultural, and economic capital while also contesting the traditional family's claims to these forms of social continuity.
