ISBN10: 1593332769, ISBN13: 9781593332761, [publisher: Gorgias Press LLC] Softcover nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Jules Leroy, the French art expert, spent several months touring the Near East in search of Early Christian remains. During this time he visited most of the monasteries in Egypt, Syria, the Lebanon, Palestine, and Iraq, some of them in ruins, some of them still flourishing. He has written a vivid account of his impressions of these monasteries and of the reception he got from the monks in them. Not all the places he visited were Christian, for he describes visits to the Moslem Bektashis in Cairo, the dervishes at Tripoli, and the Yezidi devil-worshippers in the mountains of Iraq.But his book is not just another travel account. Monsieur Leroy makes it a comprehensive study of monasticism, of ascetism in its many forms, like the Stylites and the hermits, of the dissemination of Christianity, and of the history of Near Eastern religious foundations in the area.The text is illustrated with about a hundred black-and-white photographs, together with maps and plans. [Einbeck, Germany] [Publication Year: 2004]
