Originally published in 1886, the Hulsean Lectures for 1885 by William Cunningham deal in detail with the writings and lasting influence of St Augustine (or Austin) from the fourth century AD through the Middle Ages up to eighteenth-century Anglicanism. The text includes a chronology of Augustine's life and writings and is richly footnoted with quotations from important source texts in the original languages. This book will be of use to students of Augustine and anyone interested in the influence of the early Church and Patristic writings.
