On Augustine<\/h1>\n

Rowan Williams<\/p>\n

Since his retirement as Archbishop of Canterbury and his return to academic life (Master of Magdalene College Cambridge) Rowan Williams has demonstrated a massive new surge of intellectual energy. In this new book he turns his attention to St Augustine.<\/p>\n

St Augustine not only shaped the development of Western theology, he also made a major contribution to political theory (City of God<\/em>) and through his\u00a0Confessions\u00a0<\/em>to the understanding of human psychology. Rowan Williams has an entirely fresh perspective on these matters and the chapter titles in this new book demonstrate this at a glance – ‘Language Reality and Desire’, ‘Politics and the Soul’, ‘Paradoxes of Self Knowledge’, ‘Insubstantial Evil’. As with his previous titles,\u00a0Dostoevsky, The Edge of Words\u00a0<\/em>and\u00a0<\/em>Faith in the Public Square\u00a0<\/em>this new study is sure to be a major contribution on a compelling subject.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
