"The book examines the origins, development, and the role of the monastic movement
in the capital of Byzantium. It was in the 5th century that a certain pattern of the
functioning of monastic circles evolved within the specific framework of the ecclesiastical
structures of Constantinople, which was a political and ecclesiastical centre of the
Eastern Roman Empire. The bulk of the book is devoted to an analysis of the written
accounts of the lives of the four Constantinopolitan holy men: Hypatios, Alexander
Akoimetos, Daniel the Stylite, and Markellos Akoimetos. The analysis proves that the
model of relationship between the holy man and the secular authority would change
less than the one between the holy man and the ecclesiastical authority. The authors
often cast the holy man in the role of "father", who was a kind of patron to the Emperor
and his apparatus of government. On the other hand, one can observe a gradual change
of the model of the relationship between the holy man and the ecclesiastical authorities
from the initial opposition to a fully harmonious partnership. All the "Lives" focus
on the idea of the third kind of authority existing alongside the two others; this
type of authority is called religious and charismatic."--Publisher's website
