The Early Days of Monasticism on Mount Athos is a historical book written by Kirsopp Lake and published in 1909. The book delves into the origins and early history of monasticism on Mount Athos, a peninsula in Northern Greece that has been a center of Eastern Orthodox monasticism for over a thousand years.Lake begins by discussing the early Christian ascetics who lived in the Egyptian desert and how their practices and beliefs influenced the development of monasticism on Mount Athos. He then goes on to detail the founding of the first monasteries on the peninsula, including the Great Lavra, which was established in the 10th century.The book also covers the various monastic traditions and practices that emerged on Mount Athos, including the Hesychast movement, which emphasized prayer and contemplation, and the Athonite Typikon, a set of rules governing monastic life on the peninsula.Throughout the book, Lake draws on a wide range of primary sources, including letters, diaries, and other historical documents, to provide a detailed and nuanced account of the early days of monasticism on Mount Athos. The book is an invaluable resource for anyone interested in the history of Eastern Orthodox monasticism or the development of Christian spirituality more broadly.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
