Bishop Ignatius Brianchaninov (1807–1867) is a well-known Russian ascetic and spiritual writer of the 19th century. His works draw attention with deep knowledge of the Holy Scripture and the writings of the Holy Fathers of the Orthodox Church, creatively reworked and understood in light of the spiritual needs of modern times. Written with remarkable literary mastery, the works of the Saint Bishop serve as a valuable guide for everyone who wants to travel the narrow and thorny path of experienced knowledge of God.
