Summary:
"Better known by its short title, the Life of Hypatius was written in the mid-fifth century by Callinicus, the second abbot of the monastery that Hypatius (ca. 366-446) founded across t546he Bosporus Strait from Constantinople. Saint Hypatius was known for his ascetic regimen, unflagging rigor, and spiritual wisdom. In this monastic hagiography, readers encounter a vision where monks are spiritual enforcers working to promote Christian orthodoxy, worship, and moral conduct"-- Provided by publisher.
