Description

Explore the life and intellectual legacy of one of history's most significant figures with Augustine from the Great Political Thinkers series by Edward Elgar Publishing. This work traces Augustine's journey from his beginnings in what is now Algeria to his time as a professor of rhetoric in Rome. As a student of neo-Platonic philosophy and a convert to Christianity, Augustine became a primary architect of Latin Christian political theory during the decline of Roman civilization. This text examines his most influential doctrines found in 'The City of God,' including his views on history, grace, predestination, and free will. Readers will gain insight into his theories regarding a true republic, the duties of Christians to the state, and the concept of just war. It is an essential resource for those studying social and cultural history.
