Who are your favorite church fathers, /his/?
Do you prefer the Latin fathers, the Greek fathers, or those of the Syriac tradition (Ephrem, Isaac, et. al)?
Are there any particular texts that you're keen on?

Bump.
Doesn't matter where the Father comes from, the Patristic tradition is pretty uniform. Saint Jerome, for instance, really isn't any sort of different tradition from Saint John Chrysostom. Only when you have divergence from patristic tradition does it appear you have distinct regional traditions of theology.
I am especially fond of the Ascetic Homilies of Saint Isaac the Syrian, as well as the Ladder of Divine Ascent.
Gregorius papa
