Evagrius Ponticus, the most prolific writer of the Christian desert fathers, is often depicted today as having urged the practice of wordless, imageless prayer. In this book Evagrius' often-neglected commentaries on scripture are discussed, together with his better-known works, in order to present a more balanced picture of Evagrius the monk and his model of the spiritual life as a rhythm back and forth between the poles of image-filled prayer based on the scriptures, and imageless, wordless, 'pure' prayer.
