And you shall sleep restful nights" (St. Ephraim the Syrian).

The Trinity-Sergius Lavra in Russia

Scott Kenworthy of Miami University in Ohio has a new book coming out. I met Scott in Columbus, Ohio last October at the biennial conference of the Association for the Study of Eastern Christian History and Culture (ASEC), held at Ohio State University, a most impressive place. It was a fantastic conference under the splendid leadership of the lovely Jennifer Spock, and I'm looking forward to going next year. He is writing a review for Logos for next year.  His new book, co-published by the Woodrow Wilson Centre and Oxford University Press, is:

The Heart of Russia: Trinity-Sergius, Monasticism, and Society after 1825 (2010),


William Mills is reviewing this for us in Logos next year.
