Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a biography of Saint Basil, a fourth-century bishop who played a pivotal role in the development of Christianity. Born into a noble family in Cappadocia, Basil received an excellent education and became a successful lawyer. However, he eventually renounced his worldly possessions to embrace monasticism. After spending several years in the desert, Basil was ordained a priest and eventually became bishop of Caesarea. Basil was a prolific writer and theologian, and his works had a profound influence on the development of Christian thought. He was a strong advocate for monasticism, and he established several monasteries in Cappadocia. Basil also played a leading role in the Council of Constantinople in 381, which condemned the Arian heresy. The book provides a comprehensive overview of Basil's life and work, and it offers a valuable insight into the history of Christianity in the fourth century. The author's meticulous research and engaging writing style make this book an essential read for anyone interested in the life and legacy of one of the most important figures in the history of the Church.
