The Life of Lazaros of Mt. Galesion - An Eleventh-Century Pillar Saint

The vita of Lazaros, here translated into English for the first time, reveals the existence of a startling hostility toward him on the part of local church officials, neighboring monasteries, and even his own monks. The Life of Lazaros of Mt. Galesion is a fascinating glimpse into the dynamics of the making, or breaking, of a holy man's reputation.
