I have been assigned to write a term paper on Orthodox Monasticism.

The problem with this is that the local library is very limited. If you could please provide me with the titles of books and magazine articles I can use for this paper.

Thank you very much in advance.

Dominus Vobiscum,

Dear Jonathan

+ Et cum spiritu tuo!

Go to the Benedictine site, www.osb.org [osb.org] and they have good bibliographies, as does the Holy Cross Orthodox Bookstore.

Perhaps the best compendium in English on Eastern Monasticism is by Adrian Fortescue.

And check out this "must see" site: www.monachos.net [monachos.net]

Good luck,

Alex
