  A revered instructor of the eremitic monks of Nitria, Sketis and Kellia, Evagrius Ponticus is a fascinating yet enigmatic figure in the history of fourth-century mystical thought. This title offers an historical and theological re-evaluation of the teaching of Evagrius that brings to bear evidence from the Greek and Syriac Evagriana.
