Uses a range of sources, from Philo, Clement and Origen to Athanasius, Evagrius and early monks, to explore the development in first- to sixth-century Egypt of new ideas about the relationship between dreams, the divine and virtue. These had profound effects on spiritual life in the medieval West and Byzantium.
