Saint Augustine of Hippo: An Intellectual Biography

Saint Augustine of Hippo: An Intellectual Biography by Hollingworth, Miles. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780199861590.

St. Augustine was undoubtedly one of the great thinkers of the early church. Yet it has long been assumed--and not without reason--that the main lines of Augustines thought have been more or less fixed since his death. That insofar as we should be aware of him in the twenty-first century, he is a figure described--if not circumscribed--by his times. A major revisionist treatment of Augustines life and thought, Miles Hollingworths Saint Augustine of Hippo overturns this assumption.
