Love And Saint Augustine by Hannah Arendt
A close, reflective reading of Augustine that explores how competing forms of love—passionate desire, self-centered attachment, and the ordered love of God—shape inner life, memory, moral judgment, and human relations; the essay follows Augustine’s inward turn and confessional method to show how privileging divine love reorients obligations toward oneself and others and alters the boundary between private intimacy and public action, with lasting consequences for community, responsibility, and political life.
