Is it possible to lift the veil of secrecy surrounding the lives of medieval Russian monasteries? It would seem that this wondrous world, where genuine, mind-blowing miracles became a part of everyday life, has long since faded into oblivion, becoming a thing of the past. But copies of ancient lives of the saints remain, the walls and towers of once-destroyed but now-revived monasteries remain, and authentic objects belonging to the holy fathers and inhabitants of numerous Russian monasteries have been preserved. This book represents the first attempt in Russian historical literature to recreate the authentic world of a medieval Russian monastery in all its richness and diversity.

The new edition of this book has been significantly revised by the author.
