Abstract
A turning point in the research history about Cassian is undoubtedly the years 2007-2008. The publication of two books by R. Goodrich and A. Casiday close a forty years of studies about this pivotal figure of the history of ancient monasticism. From Chadwick’s seminal book published in 1968, to the more recent Rousseau’s, Leyser’s and Benedictine’s (from A. de Vogüé to M. Sheridan) researches, aim of this essay is to show some different historiographical tendencies between history and theology.I documenti in FLORE sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
