Abstract

Saint Nicholas Kavasila (c. 1320 - c. 1391) was a pupil and maternal nephew of Saint Nilus Kavasila (1300-1363), Archbishop of Thessalonica. During the civil war and later he supported John VI Cantacuzin. Saint Nicholas Kavassila accompanied Saint Gregory Palamas on his journey to Thessaloniki and, after the Zealots prevented Saint Gregory from taking his See, he joined him on the Holy Mountain. He spent the rest of his life in silence, away from political strife.
