Transfigured in the Night: The Life and Teachings of Elder Aimilianos of Simonopetra,
by Monk Maximos (Constas) & St. Herman of Alaska Brotherhood
This issue features an in-depth
biography of a major Orthodox elder and author of the late 20th century,
Archimandrite Aimilianos of Simonopetra Monastery on Mount Athos. Fr.
Aimilianos was one of the elders responsible for the spiritual revival on Mount
Athos that began during the 1970s and continues to this day. Several of his
books, such as
The Authentic
Seal, The Way of the Spirit,
and
The Church at Prayer have been translated into English and are
spiritual classics. The author of this biography, Fr. Maximos (Constas), is a
monk of Simonopetra and has provided us with the most complete biography of the
Elder to date. Fr. Maximos is currently Senior Research Scholar at Holy Cross
Greek Orthodox School of Theology, in Brookline, MA.
