The Philocalia of Origen is a collection of writings by the early Christian theologian Origen, compiled by two Byzantine monks in the 4th century. The book consists of 27 chapters, each containing excerpts from Origen's works on various topics, including theology, philosophy, and spiritual discipline. The texts are written in a style that blends biblical exegesis with philosophical inquiry and contemplative prayer. Origen's ideas on the nature of God, the soul, and the afterlife are explored in depth, as are his teachings on asceticism and the pursuit of spiritual perfection. The Philocalia of Origen is considered an important work in the history of Christian thought, and has influenced many later theologians and mystics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
