Augustine Of Hippo by Peter Brown

A Biography

A sweeping intellectual and spiritual portrait that follows Augustine from a provincial, pleasure-seeking youth through his philosophical searching and dramatic conversion to a long, influential episcopate in North Africa. It interweaves his inner struggles and theological development—on sin, grace, memory, and the nature of the church—with the political and cultural upheavals of late antiquity, showing how his pastoral activity and writings shaped Western Christianity and ongoing debates about faith and reason.
