The Cambridge Companion To Augustine by Eleonore Stump

A concise, accessible collection of essays that introduces Augustine’s life, major works, and central doctrines while surveying his influence on theology, philosophy, and the Western tradition; contributors explain and critically engage key themes such as God and the Trinity, creation and time, memory and the self, sin and grace, free will, biblical exegesis, ecclesiology, and political thought, and they situate his ideas in their historical context and in ongoing scholarly and philosophical debates.
