Basil of Caesarea is thought of most often as an opponent of heresy
and a pioneer of monastic life in the eastern church. In this
biographical study, however, controversy is no longer seen as the
central preoccupation of his life, nor are his ascetic initiatives
viewed as separable from his pastoral concern for all Christians.
Basil's letters, sermons, and theological treatises, together with
the testimonies of his relatives and friends, reveal a man beset by
doubt. He demanded loyalty, but gave it also, and made it a central
feature of his church. In Rousseau's portrait, Basil's
understanding of human nature emerges as his major legacy.
