"Christian monasticism emerged in Egypt at the close of the 3rd century and spread rapidly to the whole Eastern Mediterranean area and beyond. The choice of a monastic life was more than a spiritual decision; it implied acceptance of a way of life that conformed to more or less formal rules. Originating from a colloquium that was organized in Athens in 2009 within the framework of a collective program, "Everyday Life in Eastern and Western Monasticisms (4th-10th century AD)", this book brings twenty articles illustrating an interdisciplinary approach to an important question: the state of the sources available for the study of various aspects of monks' daily life. Both archaeological and written evidence-normative, literary and documentary-is presented according to six geographic zones, from northern Mesopotamia to Ireland. This approach yields a better understanding of the dissemination of monasticism, an essential and yet varied form of Christian life, which had a lasting impact on the societies in late Antiquity and the early Middle Ages."- 4e de couv. "Le monachisme chrétien est né en Égypte vers la fin du IIIe siècle. Celui-ci s'est ensuite rapidement propagé dans toute la Méditerranée orientale, puis au-delà. Devenir moine impliquait alors non seulement un choix spirituel, mais aussi l'acceptation d'un mode de vie conforme à des exigences pratiques énoncées de manière plus ou moins formelle. Issu d'un colloque tenu à Athènes en 2009 dans le cadre du programme collectif "Vie quotidienne des moines en Orient en Occident (IVe-Xe siècle)", cet ouvrage propose une approche pluridisciplinaire en rassemblant vingt articles autour d'une question fondamentale : l'état des sources disponibles pour étudier les divers aspects du quotidien des moines. Autour de cette problématique se croisent des témoignages aussi bien archéologiques qu'écrits - normatifs, littéraires et documentaires - répartis en six zones géographiques, allant de la Mésopotamie du Nord jusqu'à l'Irlande. La démarche permet de mieux comprendre les modalités de diffusion du monachisme, une forme de vie chrétienne à la fois essentielle et variée, qui a durablement marqué les sociétés de l'Antiquité tardive et du haut Moyen Âge." - 4e de couv.
