On the Mystical Life, The Ethical Discourses: Volume III

Life, Times, and Theology

This is the third of a three-volume series. The first two volumes translated St Symeon's Ethical Discourses, while this audiobook seeks to place the teaching of the discourses in their proper context, both among Symeon's other writings and with regard to his sources in the Tradition. Included thus is a sketch of Symeon's life and times, together with an extensive discussion of his thought, particularly against the background in the ascetical, mystical, and theological literature of the Christian East prior to the tenth century.

The SVS Press audiobook program is sponsored by St. Symeon Illumination Fund. If you are interested in sponsoring the creation of an SVS Press audiobook, please contact us at [e-mail].
