520 | |a In this monograph Kelly seeks to explore how ‘John Cassian used texts considered sacred in the Christian tradition to propose an ideal for living the monastic life’ (p. ix). The question central to his investigation is, ‘How does Cassian render the biblical text meaningful?’ (pp. 14, 104). Kelly draws attention to an absence of focused study on Cassian’s exegetical method beyond the discussions of his four senses of Scripture in Conference XIV. He contends that Cassian used Scripture, and especially the exemplars of faith presented in it, ‘to convey his understanding of the desert ideal to the monastic communities of Gaul’ (p. 3). The argument of the book is particularly focused on exploring how Cassian uses mimesis as a means of appropriating and applying Scripture to monastic practice. | ||
