Daniel F. Caner studies the religious and social history of the early Byzantine world and late antiquity, with particular attention to Christian monasticism, charitable giving, and the practices surrounding gifts, alms, and offerings. His work examines how monks, bishops, and communities understood wealth, poverty, and philanthropy, drawing on historical texts, hagiography (biographies of holy figures), and religious documents. He also reviews scholarly books in these fields.
