The Donatist Controversy Vol. 1 (The Works of Saint Augustine: a Translation for the 21st Century)

Augustine of Hippo

0/5 ( ratings)

Augustine's writings against the members of the "Donatist" church in North Africa contain his mature thought on the nature of the sacraments, the morality of the clergy, and the importance of mercy and charity in maintaining church unity. This volume contains the first new English translations of Augustine's writings against the Donatists in more than 100 years, and in the case of at least one writing there has never been an English translation until now. Augustine's responses to conflicts within the North African church remain surprisingly relevant to contemporary crises in Catholicism.

This Volume contains the following writings:

To the Catholic Members of the Church / On the Unity of the Church
Ad Catholicos fratres / De unitate ecclesiae

Answer to the Letter of Parmenian
Contra epistulam Parmeniani

Answer to the Letters of Petilian
Contra litteras Petiliani

Baptism
De baptism

The Correction of the Donatists
De correctione Donatistarum

Format: Kindle Edition

Publisher: New City Press
