On Christian Teaching (Oxford World's Classics)

On Christian Teaching (Oxford World's Classics) by R. P. H. Green. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780192839282.

The De Doctrina Christiana ("On Christian Teaching") is one of Augustines most important works on the classical tradition. Undertaken at the same time as the Confessions, it sheds light on the development of Augustines thought, especially in the areas of ethics, hermeneutics, and sign-theory. This completely new translation gives a close but updated representation of Augustines thought and expression, while a succinct introduction and select bibliography present the insights of recent research.
