A Companion to Augustine

"As such, this present inter-and interdisciplinary companion to Augustine gathers and presents new flavours within Augustine research, which certainly leaves us yearning for more."  (Ephemerides Theologicae Lovanienses, 1 December 2012)

“Besides an introduction by Mark Vessey, this truly impressive volume has seven parts; each of the parts has many articles by some of the finest Augustinian scholars and historians of late antiquity . . . All told, the volume is a fine contribution to Augustinian studies by some of the best scholars of the present day.”  (Catholic Historical Review, 1 January 2013)

“For those of us who teach Augustine on a regular basis, but who are not members of the sprawling familia of scholars who have structured their research agendas around the work of this fascinating and deeply influential late antique bishop, this volume is a treasure trove of judicious assessments and learned insights.  It would not be difficult to structure a veryworthwhile seminar on the age of Augustine using its contents, particularly Parts I-V. Mark Vessey has performed an exceptional service by marshalling this legion of specialists to produce what will surely be one of the most important resources for the study of Augustine for many decades to come.”  (Bryn Mawr Classical Review, 16 February 2013)

“Summing Up: Recommended.  Lower-level undergraduates through rearchers/faculty.”  (Choice, 1 November 2012)
