`There are certain rules for interpreting the scriptures which, as
I am well aware, can usefully be passed on to those with an
appetite for such study...' On Christian Teaching is one of
Augustine's most important works on the classical tradition.
Written to enable Christian students to be their own interpreters
of the Bible, it provides an outline of Christian theology, a
detailed discussion of ethical problems, and a fascinating early
contribution to sign theory. Augustine also makes a systematic
attempt to determine what elements of classical education are
permissible for a Christian, and in the last book suggests ways in
which Ciceronian rhetorical principles may help in communicating
the faith. This long-needed, completely new and up-to-date
translation gives a close but stylish representation of Augustine's
thought and expression. References to the classical background are
carefully explained and Roger Green's introduction describes the
aims and circumstances of the work, and outlines its influence on
major figures in the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. ABOUT THE
SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has made
available the widest range of literature from around the globe.
Each affordable volume reflects Oxford's commitment to scholarship,
providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable
features, including expert introductions by leading authorities,
helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for
further study, and much more.
