Recenzii
“In Augustine and the Cure of Souls, Paul R. Kolbet . . . reminds us how deeply Augustine was shaped by the ancient world’s rhetorical tradition and shows how he both drew upon it and upended it in his long career of preaching Christ. . . . Because Kolbet’s concern is historical, we should not expect his Augustine to answer all of our questions. But as Kolbet has shown, Augustine has much more to say to us today than we might think. Augustine held that the best way to understand him was to observe his ministry in action, and by patiently doing so, Kolbet has done today’s ministers a great service.”
“This is a highly readable study on ‘Augustine’s reception of classical traditions of the cure of souls and his transformation of these classical traditions in his Christian rhetoric.’ . . . the book is an admirable presentation of Augustine’s developing thought and its relation to the classical culture in which he was educated, and brings together in an illuminating manner topics previously served less well by separate treatment. It is certainly a book to recommend to students of Augustine and to would-be catechists or preachers.”
“The special value of Kolbet’s work is the author’s thorough treatment of Augustine’s classical background and the continuity between that knowledge and his own practice as a preacher.”
“Kolbet has written a very useful book. It is meritorious how he has interwoven Augustine’s life, work, and thoughts into insights on Augustine’s indebtedness to the ancient philosophical tradition and Roman past as far as the psychagogical formation of mankind is concerned.”
