The Trinity (Vol. I/5) 2nd Edition (The Works of Saint Augustine: A Translation for the 21st Century) - Hardcover
Synopsis
Augustine knows by faith that God is a trinity, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, and he is seeking as far as possible to understand what he believes. In the first seven books Augustine begins by searching the scriptures of the Old and New Testaments for clues to understanding and then argues in the language of philosophy and logic to defend the orthodox statement of the doctrine against the Arians. In the last eight books Augustine seeks to understand the mystery of the divine Trinity by observing an analogous trinity in the image of God, which is the human mind; and in so doing, he also suggests a program for the serious Christian of spiritual self-discovery and renewal. This second edition is newly produced, now featuring convenient footnotes rather than the previously used endnotes.

About the Author
Augustine of Hippo is one of the greatest thinkers and writers in the Western world. After becoming a Christian he was made bishop of Hippo in Africa, where he was influential in civil and church affairs. His more than 100 books, 200 letters and 500 sermons have left a lasting impact on Western philosophy and culture. His classic and best-selling works include The Confessions, The Trinity, The City of God, and Teaching Christianity.
Review
What Father Hill has provided is a splendid translation, made from a trustworthy Latin text, of what is for some of us the foundation work of Christian theology. He has fitted out his translation, clearly the best of the four that have been made into English, with notes that go well beyond the perfunctory and an introduction that is a delight to read. Includes convenient footnotes rather than the previously used end notes in the original edition. --Barry Ulanov, Journal of Religion and Health
These translations make Augustine's thought accessible to non-specialists, they are an inspirational resource. --Margaret R. Miles, Harvard University
... supersedes all other English editions in every subject. --Carol Harrison, University of Durham
