St. Athanasius - Life of St. Anthony (Full) | Catholic Culture Audiobooks

Catholic Culture Audiobooks presents a 6-part series of St. Athanasius’ famous biography of St. Anthony. Listen to the entirety of Athanasius’ Life of St. Anthony without interruption. You may already be familiar, from its countless iterations across art and literature, with “The Temptation of St. Anthony”... but The Life of St. Anthony—of which the temptations are only part—is one of the most influential works in the history of Christian literature. Setting aside the unique authority and influence of the biographer (the great Church father, St. Athanasius of Alexandria), the work itself describes the life of a singularly holy man. In fact, it is the earliest biographical account of a saint who had become such without having had to suffer martyrdom. Though St. Anthony was not the first Christian hermit, he was the most popular: this account of his life did much to spread his ascetic and monastic ideals throughout the East and West. Anthony has been called not only the father of Christian monasticism, but even the founder of the religious life.
