| 520 | |a This article examines descriptions of the clothing of male and female monks that abound in late antique monastic literature. These accounts sought to create a monastic “uniform” that would set the boundaries and establish the values of monastic life.

These incongruities express the central tension of monasticism between sinful human and transcendent angelic identity. Ancient authors were aware of this paradox and so too possible misperceptions of monastic clothing and its meaning. | ||
