This is an automatically translated description

The history of the book dates back to the end of the 16th century when the Italian priest Lorenzo Scupoli published his notes on the spiritual life. Two hundred years later, Nicodemus the Saint, seeing that the book was a good presentation of asceticism, translated it into Greek and added quotes from the Holy Scriptures and the works of the Church Fathers. A hundred years later, Theophanes the Recluse translated The Invisible Struggle into Russian, adapting the book to the Eastern Tradition. And today we have a Ukrainian translation.
