作者简介
Saint Augustine of Hippo, born Aurelius Augustinus on November 13, 354, in Thagaste (modern-day Souk Ahras, Algeria), is recognized as one of the foremost figures in the development of Western Christianity and philosophy. He serves as a bridge between the ancient and medieval worlds, with a profound legacy that persists in modern theological and philosophical thought. Augustine's life, as recounted in his influential work 'Confessions,' delineates a seminal journey from sin and skepticism to profound faith, a spiritual transformation that has inspired countless individuals through the ages. His extensive written corpus includes more than 100 books, with 'On Christian Doctrine' ('De Doctrina Christiana') being a pivotal work that illustrates his approach to interpreting and teaching the scriptures. This particular treatise, not completed until the early 5th century, has historically served as a foundational text on hermeneutics within Christian theological education. Augustine's literary style combines rhetorical eloquence with a passionate pursuit of truth, characterized by introspection and psychological depth. As a theologian and philosopher, he integrated Neoplatonic thought with Christian doctrine, influencing a multitude of areas, including just war theory, original sin, and the concept of the City of God. Augustine's work remained spiritually and intellectually seminal throughout the Middle Ages and into the Renaissance, impacting significant reformers and scholars. As a Doctor of the Church, his thoughts continue to be deeply reverberated in contemporary Christian studies and philosophy. His feast day is celebrated on August 28, the day of his death in 430 AD.
