Susannah Ticciati explores Augustine's scriptural interpretation,
as well as the ways in which he understands the character of signs
in theory. The book explores Augustine's scriptural world via three
case studies, each geared towards the healing of a particular
modern opposition. The three, interrelated, modern oppositions are
rooted in an insufficient semiotic worldview. Ticciati argues they
contribute to the alienation of the modern reader not only from
Augustine's scriptural world, but more generally from the
scriptural world as habitation. Examining the ways in which the
therapy for our modern day semiotic illiteracy can be found in the
5th-6th-century Augustine, Ticciati brings close readings of
Augustine to bear on significant concerns of our own day:
specifically, our modern alienations from the rich world of
Scripture.
