A propos de cet article

xix, 234 p.; 21.5 cm. Contents: I. Love of man and love of God (1-5) -- II. On the holy days (6-10) -- III. Pagans and heretics (11-15) -- IV. Christianity prefigures (16-19) -- V. The world of the present and the world to come (20-23) -- VI. Diverse topics (24-29) -- Epilogue: life in Christ (30) -- `After reading the sermons contained in Migne, volumes 38 and 39, and those in Morin's text--a total of somewhat more than 500--I found about 60 that seemed particularly persuasive, instructive, beautiful, or memorable. From these I selected 30 [PL 34 385 161 392 349 184 194 201 224, Mai 95, PL 360 183 348 150 241 1 364 10 300 81 374, Guelferb. 1, PL 22 73 43 273 274 355 340, Mai 126] that give as wide a representation as possible of Augustine's thought. Although the method of selection is naturally colored by my likes and dislikes, I believe I have done justice to every major topic covered within the sermons. Three of the sermons in this collection (2, 17, and 29 [PL 385 364 340]) are now attributed to St. Caesar of Arles (ca. 470-542). Their legitimacy in a collection of St. Augustine's sermons can be defended by the fact that St. Caesar, who was an heir to antiquity's liberal view of plagiarism, appropriated these sermons from St. Augustine, merely adding his own exordium or conclusion or changing a word here and there.'
