This book examines the influence of the monastic tradition beyond
the Reformation. Where the built monastic environment had been
dissolved, desire for the spiritual benefits of monastic living
still echoed within theological and spiritual writing of the
seventeenth and eighteenth centuries as a virtual exegetical
template. The volume considers how the writings of monastic authors
were appropriated in post-Reformation movements by those seeking a
more fervent spiritual life, and how the concept of an internal
cloister of monastic/ascetic spirituality influenced several
Anglican writers during the Restoration. There is a careful
examination of the monastic influence upon the Wesleys and the
foundation and rise of Methodism. Drawing on a range of primary
sources, the book will be of particular interest to scholars of
monastic and Methodist history, and to those engaged in researching
ecclesiology and in ecumenical dialogues.
