City of God, Abridged Study Edition

Meer over het boek

St. Augustine's work delves into the contrast between the City of God, founded on divine love, and the City of Man, based on self-love. Through a critique of Roman religion and a defense of Christianity, he explores themes such as grace, humanity's original state, just warfare, ideal governance, and the afterlife. His profound insights and expansive interests make this text a cornerstone of Christian literature, essential for anyone studying the classics of Christian thought.
