First published in the 4th century A.D., Anthony the Great's biography was authored by Christian Saint Athanasius of Alexandria. Since its original release, the book has helped spread the beliefs, practices and arduous faith of Anthony the Great to a wider audience. A significant progenitor of the monastic tradition, Saint Anthony lived an ascetic lifestyle in the deserts of Egypt. Although not the earliest of religious figures committed to this tradition, through his actions and preaching Anthony helped popularise and spread principles that would contribute heavily to the establishment of Christian monastic orders in Europe and beyond. One famous event in St. Anthony's life was his encounter with the supernatural in the remote reaches of the Egyptian desert. This occurrence, wherein the otherworldly presence tried to tempt him away from his spartan philosophy of living, has experienced much coverage in Western art and literature. The translation to English contained in this edition is by Philip Schaff and Henry Wace; theologians who held Anthony the Great in high esteem.

Not only from Egypt, but from the most remote parts of the Roman Empire, a continuous stream of visitors stretched into the desert to see the hermit Anthony: priests, monks, laymen. Some went for advice in some of their business, others just wanted to be with him, learning from his silence and finding that his very presence renews hope in them. St. Anthony is a prototype of the spiritual type of an elder, a geron (Greek), a blessed "abba" or spiritual guide, which is special and characteristic of Eastern Christianity. Many of the words and advice that Saint Anthony used to heal his Christian brothers have come down to us - processed and to a greater or lesser extent published - in his Life, compiled by Saint Athanasius, and in Apoftegms , or Words of the Hermit Fathers. However, did Saint Anthony himself take care to write down his spiritual teaching - and have these records been preserved? Life informs us that he "did not know literacy", but even so he could well dictate what he considered necessary to his students. And in fact, seven letters traditionally attributed to St. Anthony have survived. On January 17, 356, Saint Anthony rested in a secluded desert shelter in the mountains above the Red Sea, where he had retired more than forty years earlier. For a month, Saint Athanasius, for the third time forcibly expelled from his episcopal throne in Alexandria, hid from persecution (a price was set for his head) and involuntarily shared long hours of solitude with the monks, whose prayers and whose faith have always been strong support for him. Under these conditions, he wrote as a guide for the spiritual life of monks from other places, who asked him about the Life of St. Anthony , who in the Latin translation was soon destined to play such a memorable role in the conversion of Blessed Augustine, and which remains to this day an undeniable classic of the Christian spiritual tradition. The "Four Conversations of Caesarea" by the brother of St. Gregory the Theologian appeared among the Slavs almost at the beginning of their regular writing, or, as they call it otherwise, from the “heyday of the Bulgarian literary culture” (X century). The book is inscribed with the names of St. Sylvester, Pope of Rome, and St. Anthony, the father of monastics; both are not only “fathers of the multitude,” but also men who succeed in godliness. But for St. Sylvester, whose day is filled with deeds, care for the pulpit, for the city, for the neighboring bishops and the whole Church, it was impossible to ponder many wise things, while the Monk Anthony in his wilderness reveals the future, what is happening in the world. Bible quotes We are all members of each other, and the body of Christ, and the head cannot say to the leg: "I do not need you." And if one member suffers, the whole body is affected and suffers with it ... Therefore, we must love each other with all our might. For he who loves his neighbor loves God; and whoever loves God loves his soul. " Here we hear the genuine voice of the desert experience.

This book revolutionizes our understanding of the life and thought of the great anchorite father of the Egyptian desert. It is a signal contribution to our knowledge of Egyptian Christianity in the third and fourth centuries.—Birger Pearson, Institute for Antiquity and Christianity Samuel Rubenson, by means of a fresh analysis of the letters of St. Antony, exposes the distortion of the picture of early Christian monks as unlettered and primitive. Rubenson describes the desert monasteries as centers of theological reflection in Egypt, showing how they combined the speculative philosophy of the Greeks and the biblical tradition. Included in this volume is a new translation of the letters themselves, which are shown to be authentic and an important source for the study of the desert fathers and the early monastic tradition. The later image of Antony is demonstrated to be influenced by church politics of the latter part of the fourth century. Samuel Rubenson is Associate Professor at Lund University, Lund, Sweden.

The biography of Anthony's life by Athanasius of Alexandria helped to spread the concept of Christian monasticism, particularly in Western Europe via its Latin translations. He is often erroneously considered the first Christian monk, but as his biography and other sources make clear, there were many ascetics before him. Anthony was, however, the among the first known to go into the wilderness (about AD 270), which seems to have contributed to his renown. Accounts of Anthony enduring supernatural temptation during his sojourn in the Eastern Desert of Egypt inspired the often-repeated subject of the temptation of St. Anthony in Western art and literature.

These seven letters were addressed by St Antony (251-356 AD) to his disciples. This hermit of the Egyptian desert draws our attention to those things which are essential in the spiritual life. Among the main themes are the witness of the Holy Spirit in the conscience of each person, the need for self-knowledge, the call to follow Christ, the unity of the Church, and our mutual co-inherence as members of the Body of Christ.
