Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'From Augustus to Augustine' is a profound scholarly examination of the spiritual and cultural transformation of the Roman world over several centuries. This work explores the monumental transition from the establishment of the Roman Principate under Augustus to the flourishing of Christian theology embodied by the life and works of Augustine of Hippo. The text meticulously traces the intellectual and moral trajectory of the Mediterranean world as it moved away from the traditions of pagan antiquity toward the dominance of the Christian faith.Ernest G. Sihler provides a series of insightful studies that analyze the philosophical shifts, social tensions, and religious developments of the period. By examining the intersection of classical Hellenism and emerging Christian doctrines, the author illustrates how the Roman social fabric was reshaped by new theological perspectives. The book offers a rigorous historical account of the decline of old Roman virtues and the rise of a new spiritual order that would eventually define Western civilization. 'From Augustus to Augustine' is an essential resource for those interested in ancient history, the history of religion, and the enduring legacy of the Roman Empire during its most transformative era.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'From Augustus to Augustine: Essays & Studies Dealing With the Contact and Conflict of Classic Paganism and Christianity' is a profound scholarly exploration into the transformative period of the Roman Empire. This collection of essays examines the complex intellectual and spiritual struggle that occurred as classical paganism encountered the burgeoning force of Christianity. The work spans the critical centuries between the reign of the first emperor, Augustus, and the influential philosophical contributions of Saint Augustine of Hippo.Author Ernest Sihler meticulously analyzes the cultural shifts, theological debates, and social upheavals that defined this era. Through various studies, the work explores how traditional Roman values and Hellenistic philosophy intersected-and often clashed-with the evolving doctrines of the early Church. Topics include the influence of Neoplatonism, the Stoic tradition, and the eventual triumph of Christian thought over the ancient polytheistic system.This volume serves as an essential resource for students of ancient history, theology, and classical studies. By detailing the contact and conflict between these two worldviews, Sihler provides deep insight into the foundations of Western civilization and the historical processes that reshaped the religious landscape of the Mediterranean world.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book embarks on a fascinating exploration of the spiritual landscape of classical antiquity, examining the religious beliefs, moral practices, and philosophical thought of the ancient Greeks and Romans. Through meticulous analysis of primary sources, the author challenges conventional assumptions about the ââ Å"aestheticââ  nature of Greek culture, revealing the deep-seated anxieties and moral struggles that underpinned their society. The book delves into the complexities of ancient religions, exploring the pantheon of gods, their flawed personalities, and the often-contradictory practices of worship. The author meticulously examines the philosophical responses to these religious systems, from the materialist theories of Democritus and Epicurus to the influential Stoic school of thought, and its intricate relationship to the nascent Christian faith. The book ultimately underscores the inadequacy of classical civilization to address the fundamental concerns of the human soul, leaving readers with a deeper understanding of the cultural and spiritual context in which Christianity arose. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. …
