• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

A major reinterpretation of Augustine's reception and influence in the later Middle Ages. The book proposes that the political and religious context of the early fourteenth century led members of the Order of Hermits of St. Augustine to create a new image of Augustine, with whom they identified as their founding father.
