Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

'... [the book] makes for a fitting tribute to an excellent scholar.' - Augustine Casiday, Heythrop Journal

'The various authors of this collection have done justice both to the critics and to the bishop of Hippo. Gerald Bonner can be congratulated on such a token of honour.' - BMCR

Reseña del editor:

Augustine of Hippo (AD 354-430) is arguably the most controversial Christian thinker in history. His positions on philosophical and theological concerns have been the subjects of intense scrutiny and criticism from his lifetime to the present.
Augustine and his Critics gathers twelve specialists' responses to modern criticisms of his thought, covering: personal and religious freedom; the self and God; sexuality, gender and the body; spirituality; asceticism; cultural studies; and politics.
Stimulating and insightful, the collection offers forceful arguments for neglected historical, philosophical and theological perspectives which are behind some of Augustine's most unpopular convictions.
