Description
Table of Contents
Google Preview: This volume is a continuation of our series exploring Saint Augustine's influence on later thought, this time bringing the fifth century bishop into dialogue with 19th century philosopher, theologian, social critic, and originator of Existentialism, Soren Kierkegaard. The connections, contrasts, and sometimes surprising similarities of their thought are uncovered and analyzed in topics such as exile and pilgrimage, time and restlessness, inwardness and the church, as well as suffering, evil, and humility. The implications of this analysis are profound and far-reaching for theology, ecclesiology, and ethics.; Introduction, by Kim Paffenroth and Helene Russell Part I: The Divine/Human Relationship Chapter 1: Justification within the Limits of Anthropology Alone: Augustine and Kierkegaard on Freedom and Grace, by Curtis Thompson Chapter 2: The Image of God in Augustine and Kierkegaard, by Matthew Drever Chapter 3: Augustine, Kierkegaard, and Evil, by Erik Hanson Chapter 4: The Spiritual Trial of Divine Seduction: Temptation and the Confessing Self, by Simon D.
