A Biography, Revised Edition with a New Epilogue
This classic biography was first published thirty years ago and has since established itself as the standard account of Saint Augustine's life and teaching. The remarkable discovery recently of a considerable number of letters and sermons by Augustine has thrown fresh light on the first and last decades of his experience as a bishop. These circumstantial texts have led Peter Brown to reconsider some of his judgments on Augustine, both as the author of the Confessions and as the elderly bishop preaching and writing in the last years of Roman rule in north Africa. Brown's reflections on the significance of these exciting new documents are contained in two chapters of a substantial Epilogue to his biography (the text of which is unaltered). He also reviews the changes in scholarship about Augustine since the 1960s. A personal as well as a scholarly fascination infuse the book-length epilogue and notes that Brown has added to his acclaimed portrait of the bishop of Hippo.

终于把最后两章读了。

评分终于把最后两章读了。
评分论文要写到他前半生,其实主要是写古典教育的转变。坦诚是真坦诚,曾经也是个五毒俱全的青年,连小时候偷苹果都要说。这种坦荡荡只有基督徒会有吧。
