The Heart of Russia: Trinity-Sergius, Monasticism, and Society after 1825 - A Woodrow Wilson Center Book
Kenworthy, Scott Mark (Assistant Professor of Comparative Religion, Assistant Professor of Comparative Religion, Miami University, Ohio)
Russian monasticism experienced revivals during the reign of Nicholas I, the post-World War II era, and the post-Soviet period, demonstrating that the impulse to renounce the contemporary world for the cloister is a central pattern of Russian religiosity. Scott Mark Kenworthy provides the first comprehensive analysis of these monastic revivals, presenting a fundamentally new picture of religion in modern Russia.
