Augustine of Hippo
with Thomas Parisi, Ph.D.
$55
This seminar focuses on Peter Brown’s biography of Augustine, a work that not only illuminates Augustine's life but also offers profound insights into the dilemmas of living in any era. Our discussions will cover a broad range of topics, reflecting the challenges Augustine faced in his time. Participation requires engagement with the readings, not selective focus on personal preferences. We will explore controversies within the context of Augustine's historical and cultural environment, which differs significantly from the 21st century. Each session will be guided by reflections on our readings.
