Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the rise of asceticism in the Egyptian desert, tracing its causes to cosmic factors. The author argues that the extreme practices of the Desert Fathers were a response to the unique climatic conditions of the region. The hot climate of Egypt made it possible for humans to survive on very little food, which in turn led to the development of extreme forms of fasting and self-denial. The book also examines the social and religious factors that contributed to the spread of asceticism, and the impact it had on the development of Christianity. The author concludes that asceticism was a complex phenomenon with both positive and negative consequences, and that its study can shed light on the human capacity for both self-sacrifice and self-destruction.
