Bøger i Works of Saint Augustine (Hard serien

This long-awaited translation by William Babcock is published in two volumes. Books 11-22 offer Augustines Christian view of history, including his view of human destiny. The INDEX for both volumes is contained in this 2nd volume. This lucid translation of Augustines complicated Latin text, complemented by an expert introduction and helpful notes, is a remarkable achievement indeed. A new jewel in the crown of an already famous series that is highly appreciated worldwide. -- Johannes van Oort, Editor of Vigiliae Christianae and author of Jerusalem and Babylon. All will be grateful to William Babcock for his new subheadings and summaries, which trace the articulations of Augustines carefully connected argument. Babcocks long reflection and deep understanding, expressed in his outstanding Introduction, shape every sentence of this clear and thoughtful translation. -- Gillian Clark, Professor Emerita, University of Bristol; Co-editor, Oxford Early Christian Studies
