Vincent Giraud, philosophe et professeur à l'université de Doshisha, nous propose d'aborder la pensée médiévale latine sous l'angle de la notion fondamentale de la Création. Non pensée par les Grecs, la création de toutes choses fut à la base des réflexions médiévales sur de nombreux sujets comme l'être, le bien, le beau. Sur une période de presque mille ans, le philosophe fait découvrir une pensée riche, évolutive et dynamique.

The City of God is one of the most important works of Christian history and philosophy ever written. The writings of St. Augustine are as intriguing to the casual reader as it is to Christian researchers. St. Augustine's work provides insight into Western thought and the development of Western civilizations. The City of God provides the reader with an artful contrast between earthy cities and those in heaven as a representation of the eternal struggle between good and evil. The City of God was originally penned in the early 5th century as a response to the prevalent belief that Christianity was to blame for the fall of Rome. St. Augustine is known as one of the most influential Fathers of the Catholic Church. Born November 13, 354, Augustine would eventually be recognized as a Saint by the Catholic Church, the Eastern Christian Church, and the Anglican Communion.

These 12 illuminating lectures paint a rich and detailed portrait of the life, works, and ideas of this remarkable figure, whose own search for God has profoundly shaped all of Western Christianity. You'll learn what Augustine taught and why he taught it – and how those teachings and doctrines helped shape the Roman Catholic Church. These lectures are rewarding even if you have no background at all in classical philosophy or Christian theology.

Confessions is the name of an autobiographical work, consisting of 13 books, by Saint Augustine of Hippo, written in Latin between 397 and 400 AD. The work outlines Saint Augustine's sinful youth and his conversion to Christianity. It is widely seen as the first Western autobiography ever written, and Professor Henry Chadwick wrote that Confessions will "always rank among the great masterpieces of western literature."

In Love and Saint Augustine, political science professor Joanna Vecchiarelli Scott and philosophy professor Judith Chelius Stark make this important early work accessible for the first time. Here is a completely corrected and revised English translation that incorporates Arendt's own substantial revisions and provides additional notes based on letters, contracts, and other documents as well as the recollections of Arendt's friends and colleagues.

Considered to be the first autobiographical work in history, this timeless book is completely applicable to everyone who has experienced the struggle between good and evil in his own soul. Saint Augustine, born in Constantine in 354 C.E., was raised by a devout Christian mother. He abandoned the Christianity of his upbringing and had an illegitimate son. After hearing the sermons of Ambrose, he began his great internal struggle which led to his conversion in 387 C.E. The Confessions describe his conversion, shedding light on the questions that had troubled him on his way to the Cross. Outside Scripture it is the most famous - and perhaps the most important - of all spiritual books.

Written after the capture of Rome in 410 by Alaric, King of the Visigoths, St Augustine's City of God was intended as a response to pagan critics who blamed Christianity for this brutal defeat. Augustine attacks ancient pagan beliefs and relates the corruption and immorality that led to Rome's downfall, which began before Christ, before reaching his main argument: that the City of Man is perishing and only the Heavenly City of God will endure.

Au Moyen Âge et à la Renaissance, les philosophes vont mener trois combats : les théologiens médiévaux intègrent les valeurs chrétiennes à la philosophie antique ; les philosophes chrétiens et mystiques opposent à la toute-puissance théologique les bienfaits de la philosophie antique ; les humanistes de la Renaissance réenchantent le monde et inspirent le renouveau de la métaphysique. Cet ouvrage cherche à mieux comprendre les relations entre philosophie et christianisme et redécouvre le mystère des penseurs de la Renaissance.

Ich sollte mich nicht in meinen Mann verlieben. Das ist nicht Teil meines Plans. Vergib mir. Das waren die ersten Worte, die Santos Augustine zu mir sprach, bevor wir einen unbrechbaren Schwur ablegten. Ein Vertrag, mit Blut unterzeichnet, der mich an ihn bindet, als Bezahlung für die Sünden meines Vaters.

This collection of sermons covers the Gospel of John in an extraordinary way. Detailing the trinity, the nature of God, the person and divinity of Jesus, and the nature of man, this wealth of information provides an extensive dive into Christian theology. St. Augustine discusses the gravity of living a holy life and the impact it has on one’s relationship with Jesus. He also speaks on the role of the Holy Spirit in providing guidance and comfort and the overwhelming impact of love as the foundation of faith and key to experiencing the nearness of God.

 Augustine was arguably the greatest early Christian philosopher. His teachings had a profound effect on medieval scholarship, Renaissance humanism, and the religious controversies of both the Reformation and the Counter-Reformation. Here, Henry Chadwick places Augustine in his philosophical and religious context and traces the history of his influence on Western thought, both within and beyond the Christian tradition. 

When going to war, there are three very simple rules one must abide by: know thy enemy, be prepared to sacrifice, and always wear good shoes. After all, revenge is a dish best served in stilettos. I've got an eye for it, and nothing's going to stand in my way. Not even Rory "The Saint" Brodrick.

I can’t have Elijah Iverson. I can’t have him because he’s my older brother’s best friend. I can’t have him because I broke his heart five years ago; because he’s now engaged to someone else - someone kind and dependable who deserves his whiskey eyes, his soft mouth, his fierce intellect.

Dans ce premier tome des Portraits littéraires, Sainte-Beuve, maître de la critique au XIXe siècle, compose une galerie d’écrivains où se croisent tempéraments, œuvres et époques. Ses portraits, à la fois biographiques et analytiques, replacent chaque auteur dans son milieu, ses lectures, ses combats, pour faire surgir une présence vivante derrière les textes. Avec une prose souple, une ironie feutrée et un sens aigu des nuances, il jauge les styles, dissipe les légendes et éclaire les filiations secrètes.

Written between A.D. 413 and 426, The City of God is one of the great cornerstones in the history of Christian thought, a book which is vital to the understanding of modern Western society. Augustine originally intended it to be an apology for Christianity against the accusation that the Church was responsible for the decline of the Roman Empire, which had occurred just three years earlier. Indeed, Augustine produced a great amount of evidence to prove that paganism was responsible for this event. However, by the time the work was finished, the book had taken on a larger theme.

Das waren die ersten Worte, die Santos Augustine zu mir sprach, bevor wir einen unbrechbaren Schwur ablegten. Ein Vertrag, mit Blut unterzeichnet, der mich an ihn bindet, als Bezahlung für die Sünden meines Vaters. Unter dem Deckmantel der Legitimität kehrte diese mächtige Verbrecherfamilie nach Avarice zurück, um all die zu bestrafen, die ihnen Unrecht getan haben, und sich das zu nehmen, was ihnen immer verwehrt wurde: einen Platz im Kreis der Elite.

Von dem Moment an, als ich Madelena De Léon zum ersten Mal erblickte, verspürte ich den unbändigen Drang, sie zu beschützen. Sie in Sicherheit zu wissen. Ihr Vater hatte versagt. Ich würde das nicht tun. Sie ist unschuldig, und ich habe kein Recht, sie mit in mein Bett zu nehmen. Aber Madelena und ich sind verbunden. Unsere Schicksale sind auf unerklärliche Weise ineinander verflochten. Genauso wie unser Überleben.

Wenn man in den Krieg zieht, gibt es drei sehr einfache Regeln, an die man sich halten muss: Kenne deinen Feind, sei bereit, dich zu opfern, und trage immer gute Schuhe. Schließlich wird Rache am Besten auf High Heels serviert. Ich habe einen Blick dafür, und nichts wird mir im Weg stehen. Nicht einmal Rory "The Saint" Brodrick. Er ist ein Narr, wenn er denkt, dass er mich ändern kann. Wenn ich mit ihm fertig bin, werde ich seine Mafia wie einen Kindergarten aussehen lassen. Sich mit mir anlegen, Mr. Brodrick? Sie legen sich besser mit Ihrem Herzen an und hoffen, zu sterben.
