Jerome Bücher

Spannend und lebendig wie Reise- oder Abenteuererzählungen lesen sich die Lebensgeschichten der christlichen Asketen Paulus, Malchus und Hilarion. Sie gehören zu den frühesten Texten der lateinischen hagiographischen Literatur. Ihr Verfasser Hieronymus (ca. 345-420) wollte mit diesen eindrücklichen Lebensdarstellungen den gebildeten Zeitgenossen sein schriftstellerisches Können unter Beweis stellen und sie zugleich für sein radikal asketisches Ideal begeistern. Ungewöhnliche Einblicke in die Anfänge des christlichen Mönchtums
