Since his retirement as Archbishop of Canterbury and his return to
academic life (Master of Magdalene College Cambridge) Rowan
Williams has demonstrated a massive new surge of intellectual
energy. In this new book he turns his attention to St Augustine. St
Augustine not only shaped the development of Western theology, he
also made a major contribution to political theory (City of God)
and through his Confessions to the understanding of human
psychology. Rowan Williams has an entirely fresh perspective on
these matters and the chapter titles in this new book demonstrate
this at a glance - 'Language Reality and Desire', 'Politics and the
Soul', 'Paradoxes of Self Knowledge', 'Insubstantial Evil'. As with
his previous titles, Dostoevsky, The Edge of Words and Faith in the
Public Square this new study is sure to be a major contribution on
a compelling subject.
