Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Melania the Younger: From Rome to Jerusalem explores the richly detailed story of Melania, an early fifthcentury Roman Christian aristocrat who renounced her staggering wealth to lead a life of ascetic renunciation. Hers is a tale of 'riches to rags.' Born to high Roman aristocracy in the late fourth century, Melania encountered numerous difficulties posed by family members, Roman officials, and historical circumstances in disposing of her wealth, property (spread across at least eight Roman provinces), and thousands of slaves. Leaving Rome with her entourage a few years before Alaric the Goth's sack of Rome in 410, she journeyed to Sicily, then to North Africa, finally settling in Jerusalemall while founding monasteries along the way. Towards the end of her life, she traveled to Constantinople (presentday Istanbul) in an attempt to convert to Christianity her stillpagan uncle, who was on a state mission to the eastern Roman court.Throughout her life, she was accustomed to meet and be assisted by emperors and empresses, bishops, and other high dignitaries. Embracing a fairly extreme asceticism, Melania died in Jerusalem in 439. A new English translation of her Life, composed by a longtime assistant who succeeded her in the direction of the male and female monasteries in Jerusalem, accompanies this biographical study.
