商品簡介
American scholars of history, philosophy, religion, and literature explore the tension between Augustine of Hippo's interest in the politics and events of his third-century Roman North African milieu and the thoughts of the otherworld that he knew should be occupying the mind of Christians. They cover his theory and practice of historiography, his place in history, and comparisons between him and later historians. Annotation c2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
