Description

Ein gutes und sauberes Exemplar. - The fifty-six letters contained in this volume were, with a few possible exceptions, written between 408 and 414. During these years the Donatist schism came to a head and was in principle healed by the Conference of Carthage in June of 411. In August of 410, Rome fell to Alaric's Goths, driving many of the Roman nobility to a safer haven in Africa. And in the aftermath of Rome's sack Pelagius and Caelestms passed through Africa on their way to the East, sowing the seeds of the heresy with which Augustine would do battle in one form or another until his death in 430. In the present volume there are forty-two letters written by Augustine and one letter written by Augustine in the name of the bishops of the Council of Cirta. There are also eleven letters written by other persons to Augustine, and two letters written neither to nor by Augustine. ISBN 1565481860
