Descriere

The De Doctrina Christiana ("On Christian Teaching") is one of Augustine's most important works on the classical tradition. Undertaken at the same time as the Confessions, is sheds light on the development of Augustine's thought, especially in the areas of ethics, hermeneutics, and sign-theory. What is most interesting, however, is its careful attempt to indicate precisely what elements of a classical education are valuable for a Christian, andhow the precepts of Ciceronian rhetoric may be used to communicate Christian truth.An up-to-date translation has long been necessary, for readers of Augustine and all who study the early church, or the classical tradition, or the history of literary criticism or Biblical interpretation. This completely new translation gives a close but stylish representation of Augustine's thought and expression. A succinct introduction and select bibliography embodies the results of recent work.

Recenzii

John K. Hale and J. Donald Cullington accomplish what no previous editor has done, namely, make Milton's original Latin itself available. Not only do they provide a new precise and complete Latin transcription per se, they foreground the successive corrections and annotations made in an array of distinct scribal hands since the 1650s. The feat is extraordinary: Hale and Cullington do nothing less than establish an accurate and reliable Latin text ... De Doctrina Christianahas never been more accessible or more exciting.
a welcome addition to Oxford's excellent Oxford Early Christian Texts series ... an interesting read and provides much food for thought.
A book for scholars, it is good to have this important treatise available in this attractive form.
G. undoubtedly provides the reader with an intelligible text ... G.'s translation is reliable and helpful. Dr. Green has rendered a praiseworthy service to those who are interested in Augustine's assessment of pagan culture and learning.
This new edition, which offers a revised text with a close and felicitous translation, is a real asset ... Green has given careful thought to what Augustine wrote and the best English equivalent.
Green has produced an excellent translation which more than does justice to the character and content of the De doctrina.
The translation is accurate and felicitous. A superior piece of work, a delight to read, and a pleasure to consult.

Textul de pe ultima copertă

The De Doctrina Christiana ('On Christian Teaching') is one of Augustine's most important works on the classical tradition. Undertaken at the same time as the Confessions, it sheds light on the development of Augustine's thought, especially in the areas of ethics, hermeneutics, and sign-theory. What is most interesting, however, is its careful attempt to indicate precisely what elements of a classical education are valuable for a Christian, and how the precepts of Ciceronian rhetoric may be used to communicate Christian truth. This long needed, completely new and up-to-date translation will be invaluable for all scholars of Augustine and the early church, as well as those studying the classical tradition, the history of literary criticism, or the development of biblical interpretation. It gives a close but stylish representation of Augustine's thought and expression. A succinct introduction and select bibliography embodies the results of recent work.
