The Cambridge Companion to Augustine's Sermons

About this book

Augustine of Hippo is known for some of the greatest theological masterpieces in Christian history, notably, hisĀ Confessions,Ā The Trinity, andĀ The City of God. Over 900 of his sermons, a treasure trove of his insights into God, Scripture, and humanity, have also survived. Given the wide dissemination of many of these texts over the past 1600 years, Augustine is arguably the most influential preacher since the time of the apostles. In recent decades, scholars have paid more attention to his sermons, including those newly discovered, with the result that Augustine's preaching has become increasingly accessible to a broad audience.Ā The Cambridge Companion to Augustine's SermonsĀ furthers this work by offering essays from an international team of experts. It provides a reliable guide for scholars and students of early Christian biblical exegesis, liturgy, doctrine, social practices, and homiletics, as well as for those dedicated to the retrieval of early preaching for the Church today.
