Augustine and Apocalyptic

Beschreibung

Augustine and Apocalyptic examines Augustine’s thoughts on the apocalypse and his influence on the understanding of this topic through the Middle Ages and into modern times. Augustine’s handling of apocalyptic thought captures him at the height of his powers, exercising his substantial skills at Biblical exegesis and rhetoric, as well as his abilities to deal with the social upheaval that followed the Fall of Rome in 410.
