This volume presents new translations of five of Augustines works:
The Excellence of Marriage, Holy Virginity, The Excellence of
Widowhood, Adulterous Marriages, and Continence.... The volume is
to be commended on several points. The translation itself is in
eminently readable, clear English that should be accessible to
anyone interested in Augustine.... The general introduction does an
excellent job of placing these works in the context of Augustines
career, showing how Augustine reacts to controversies with the
Manichees, Jovinian, Jerome, and the Pelagians, while maintaining a
commitment to the threefold goods of marriage procreation,
fidelity, and sacrament. This is a wonderful collection that allows
readers to see the complexity of Augustines thought on a difficult
topic. Kim Paffenroth Journal of Early Christian Studies
