Holy Fools in Byzantium and Beyond - Oxford Studies in Byzantium
Ivanov, Sergey A. (Senior Research Associate, Institute of Slavic and Balkan Studies, Russian Academy of Sciences)
The image of St Basil's Cathedral in Moscow's Red Square is a familiar Russian landmark. Saints such as Basil overturn the conventional concept of sainthood - what is saintly about them? This book aims to solve the mystery by exploring the figure of the holy fool in Byzantium and in later Russian history.
