Ambrose and John Chrysostom: Clerics between Desert and Empire
Liebeschuetz, J. H. W. G. (Professor Emeritus, University of Nottingham)
A comparison of the personalities and careers of two of the greatest of the early Christian Fathers, Ambrose and John Chrysostom. Both were profoundly influenced by monasticism and its ascetic worldview - perhaps the most dynamic development in the Christian culture of the fourth century - and both were also concerned with the Church's social role.
