<em>The Asketikon of St Basil the Great</em> comprises a new English translation and studies which re-examine the emergence of monasticism in Asia Minor. The <em>Regula Basilii</em>, translated by Rufinus from Basil's Small Asketikon, is closely compared with the Greek text of the longer edition, as a means to<br>tracing the collections development of ideas. Silvas concludes that the antecedents of the monastic community of the Great Asketikon are best sought not in some kind of sub-orthodox <em>modus vivendi</em> of male and female ascetics living together and increasingly curbed by an emerging neo-Nicene orthodoxy less<br>favourable to women ('homoiousian asceticism'), but in the local domestic ascetic movement in Anatolia as typified in the developments at Annisa under the leadership of Makrina.<br>.
