The formation of Augustine's mind: Cicero, Mani, Plato, Christ -- Liberal arts -- Free choice -- A philosophical society -- Vocation -- Confessions -- Unity and division -- Creation and the Trinity -- City of God -- Nature and grace.
Augustine was arguably the greatest early Christian philosopher. His teachings had a profound effect on Medieval scholarship, Renaissance humanism, and the religious controversies of both the Reformation and the Counter-Reformation. Here, Henry Chadwick places Augustine in his philosophical and religious context and traces the history of his influence on Western thought, both within and beyond the Christian tradition. -- PUBLISHER DESCRIPTION.
