Here&#8217;s the bottom line:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px\">What is striking about this monograph is how well Hagman narrates an anthropological investigation into the nature of asceticism with Isaac of Nineveh, the ascetic\u2019s ascetic, as the exemplar. Well-written, yet methodical and thorough, Hagman has provided an essential starting-point for further studies of Isaac of Nineveh. Since scholars seem to keep finding new works of Isaac, this starting-point should prove to be useful to a new generation of Isaac\u2019s readers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Robert A.
