A preface introduces the educational activities in the early church then explores the educational theories of the fathers while detailing the relationship between the elder and the disciple. It highlights teaching methods and discipline in monastic education before addressing monks and culture. The conclusion affirms that culture was never an end for monasticism but a tool since it sought to create saints rather than scholars.
