About
Russian monasticism experienced revivals during the reign of Nicholas I, the post-World War II era, and the post-Soviet period, demonstrating that the impulse to renounce the contemporary world for the cloister is a central pattern of Russian religiosity. Scott Mark Kenworthy provides the first comprehensive analysis of these monastic revivals, presenting a fundamentally new picture of religion in modern Russia.
