Résumé : |
St Augustine, the greatest of the latin fathers,is still, as he as always been, the most widely read and the most deeply studied of all Christian writers, and the one whose thought seems to us the frehest, the most living, and the most relevant to our concerns and needs. Perhaps in our own time, especially, there has been a shift of emphasis.
We do not now see St Augustine as primarily the Doctor of Grace: he attracts an increasing amount of intention from philosophers and théologians who are interested in his teaching about how the human mind comes to know God, his doctrine of 'illumination' and about the Church as the Mystical body of Christ, and related themes. The confessions are the most famous and sublime of all autobiographical worls. |
