Description

This scholarly work explores how clothing functioned as a material expression of ascetic and monastic ideals in ancient Egypt, examining the profound connection between garments and religious practice. The book investigates how clothes shaped the embodied experiences of Egyptian monastics and ascetics, revealing their role as more than mere coverings but as essential markers of spiritual commitment and identity. By analysing the garments worn by these religious communities, the author demonstrates how textiles and dress practices communicated religious values and reinforced monastic discipline. The study extends beyond Egypt to consider broader anthropological and sociological dimensions of religious clothing across traditions, offering insights into how material culture embodies faith. Part of the Routledge Studies in Religion series, this book combines historical analysis with contemporary scholarship to illuminate the often-overlooked significance of clothing in understanding ancient Christian monastic life and ascetic spirituality.
