Summary/Abstract: Despite being such an important figure for the Orthodox Theology, Saint Seraphim of Sarov is not very well known in Romania. Many of the works dedicated to him are in fact popularising books and a lot of them are difficult to find today. That is why the translation of Irina Gorainoff’s book, dedicated to the conversation between the Russian Saint and Motovilov, his disciple, represents such an important event for us. It brings the Saint to the attention of the contemporary research and it offers the general public the possibility to find out more about Father Seraphim, his ideas and his activity and it returns an important document to the historiographical research .
