The City of God, Paperback - Saint Augustine

Detalii:

First published in the first part of the 5th century A.D., The City of God is Saint Augustines highly influential work of Christian philosophy. This expansive theological work provided an articulate defense of Christianity against the claims that it lead to the downfall of Rome in the years preceding its publication. It outlines a citizenship that goes beyond the worldly, the political, and the self-centered, instead focusing on a place where the inhabitants are devout, God-focused, and seeking grace. In examining history with a clear perception of good and evil, Augustine was in effect interpreting human actions in relation to eternity. He contrasts earthly and heavenly cities to great effect, in addition to inspecting pagan religions, Greek philosophers like Plato, and the Bible. A monumental influence upon Augustines contemporaries, The City of God is considered a foundational work of Christianity philosophy, which would establish Augustine of Hippo as one of the most important fathers of the Catholic Church, and continues to resonate with the Christian faith until this day. This edition is printed on premium acid-free paper and is translated with an introduction by Marcus Dods.Book specifications:Dimensions: 229 x 152Author: Saint AugustineCover type: PaperbackPublishing Year: 2021Publishing Month: 9Pages: 718Language: EnglishPublisher: Digireads.comWeight: 1034 g
