Loading... The Philokalia: The Complete Text (Vol. 1); Compiled by St. Nikodimos of the Holy Mountain and St. Markarios of Corinthby G. E. H. Palmer, Kallistos, Bishop of Diokleia, G.E.H. Palmer (Translator), Saint Makarios, Metropolitan of Corinth, Philip Sherrard (Translator) — 2 more, Philip Sherrard, Saint Nicodemus the Hagioritecomplete text of Vol. I As the back of the book says, the Philokalia is the most important book other than the Bible for Orthodox Christians, and it is truly amazing. The glossary at the back of this book helps a lot, and contains explanations of many very important Orthodox beliefs and terms. The only complaint I have is that I wish the translators and editors would have included St. Nikodimos' comments on the various writings he compiled within this English edition. It seems that they would have been very helpful and retaining them would have remained true to the original compilation by Ss. Nikodimos and Markarios. |
