The Spirit of Augustine's Early Theology

Contextualizing Augustine's Pneumatology

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book-length study of Augustine's pneumatology examines his earliest extant writings, penned during the years surrounding his famed return to the Catholic Church and the height of his efforts to synthesize Catholic theology. Careful analysis of these initial texts casts fresh light upon Augustine's more mature and well-known theology of the Holy Spirit while also illuminating ongoing discussions about his early thought.
