Allan Fitzgerald & John Cavadini,
eds., Augustine Through the Ages: An Encyclopedia (Grand
Rapids, MI: Wm. B. Eerdmans, 1999) hardcover, $75. The most
up-to-date reference work on Augustine, over 900 pages, surveying
every aspect of his life, writings, theology, and influence. This
is the best place place to start one’s research on Augustine. The
opening pages has a chart with a complete list of Augustine’s
treatises, both original texts and English translations; other
charts list Augustine’s letters and sermons.
Peter Brown, Augustine of Hippo: a
Biography, rev. ed. (Berkeley: University of California Press,
2000) paperback, $20. Start here. This is certainly the best
biography of Augustine—written with masterful insight and in
masterful prose. Brown’s gift is to bring alive all the richly
human tensions and depths of Augustine’s personality and world.
This new edition has an epilogue on the newly discovered sermons and
letters.
Serge Lancel, Saint Augustine (London: SCM Press, 2002) paperback, $35. The first full-length
biographical study to rival Brown’s study. It is especially
good on the archeology of North Africa. Unlike Brown's work, it
gives Augustine's theology its rightful attention. First published in
French in 1999, it remains somewhat hard to
find in the U.S.
Gerald Bonner, St. Augustine: His
Life and Controversies, 3rd ed. (Morehouse Publishing Co., 2002)
paperback, $30. A good one-volume study of Augustine’s theology.
Henry Chadwick, Augustine: A Very
Short Introduction (New York: Oxford University Press, 2001)
paperback, $9. A fine brief survey of Augustine’s theology.
Mary T. Clark, Augustine
(reprint of 1991 edition: New York: Continuum, 2001) paperback, $19.
Cornelius Mayer, ed.,
Augustinus Lexikon, 3 volumes to date (Basel: Scwabe, 1986- ). A massive encyclopedia on
Augustine, with articles written in one of four languages (German,
English, French, Italian). This ambitious but slow-moving project
will, at the present rate, take decades to complete.
James J. O’Donnell, Augustine: A New
Biography (New York: HarperCollins, 2005) paperback, $27. An
astonishingly mean-spirited book. O'Donnell writes Augustine off
as an untrustworthy "self-promoter" and seems intent on using his
otherwise formidable scholarly expertise only to trash Augustine at
virtually every turn. O'Donnell resurrects a host of old slanders
(e.g. Augustine as a covert Manichee) and bottles his venom in deadpan
asides. A very, very strange book.
Garry Wills, Saint Augustine,
Penguin Lives (New York: Viking Press, 1999) NEW in paperback, $13. A good
brief study of Augustine; quirky in spots, brilliant in others.
Latin Texts: Nearly all of Augustine’s works
can be found in J.P. Migne, Patrologia Latina, vol.
32-47. Migne reproduced the excellent 17th-century edition of
the Benedictines of St. Maur. Recently, the publishers of
Augustine’s works in Italian (the Nuova Biblioteca Agostiniana)
have provided a valuable service to students of Augustine by posting
this classic edition (for free!) on the Internet. Here’s the
address:
http://www.augustinus.it/latino/index.htm
This older Patrologia Latina
edition is slowly being replaced by modern critical editions in the
Corpus Scriptorum Ecclesiasticorum Latinorum (CSEL) and the
Corpus Christianorum, Series Latina (CCL).
The valuable, but
still incomplete Bibliothèque Augustinienne (Paris:
Desclée de Brouwer, 1949- ) has volumes with the
Latin text and a French translation on facing pages, often with
valuable introductions and notes.
New Discoveries:
Two groups of recently discovered
texts have been the focus of much recent study. The first are a
set of 29 letters: Johannes Divjak, ed., Epistolae ex duobus
codicibus nuper in lucem prolatae, CSEL 88. The other are a
set of 26 new sermons: Francois Dolbeau, ed. Vingt-six
sermons au peuple d’Afrique, Retrouvé à Mayence,
Collection des Études Augustiniennes, Série Antiquité 147
(Paris: Institut d’Études Augustiniennes, 1996).
Translations into English
(Collections / Series): A number of
Augustine’s works are found in two large series: Fathers of the Church
(Washington, DC: Catholic University of America Press) and
Ancient Christian Writers (New York: Paulist Press).
See also the 8-volume collection in the Nicene and
Post-Nicene Fathers, 1st series, for 19th-century
translations (and these can be found at various places on the
internet). The best translations are the following:

his interior life at the time he is writing (Bk. 10), and on the
opening verses of Genesis (Bk. 11-13). One of the masterpieces of

William Harmless, Augustine and the
Catechumenate (Collegeville, MN: The Liturgical Press, 1995)
paperback, $35. Augustine was not just a theologian. He was also a
struggling 5th-century North African pastor who had a flair for
teaching and who meditated a great deal on the complexities of the
human heart. This study examines a little known side of him: his
work as a teacher of candidates for baptism. It reconstructs the
experience of becoming a Christian and of worshipping in the church
of St. Augustine.

(New York: Routledge, 2000) paperback, $28. Augustine welcomed

most controversial perspectives—and in the process debunks certain
long-standing critiques of his work.
Gerald Bonner, St. Augustine: His
Life and Controversies, 3rd ed. (Morehouse Publishing
Co., 2002) paperback, $30. Bonner concentrates on Augustine's
three big controversies (with the Manichees, the Donatists, and the
Pelagians), devoting two chapters to each, one on the historical context
and one on theological content. Despite the claim of being a "new edition," this is
essentially the same book published in 1963.

Iaian Gardner & Samuel N.C. Lieu,
Manichaean Texts from the Roman Empire (Cambridge: Cambridge
University Press, 2004) paperback, $33. Mani (216-276), born
in Persian Mesopotamia, experienced a series of visions which
convinced him that he was called to complete what earlier religious
founders—Buddha, Zoroaster, Jesus—had left incomplete. Mani
believed himself called to found the first true world
religion, the “Religion of Life,” and described himself as the
“apostle of Jesus Christ.” His followers went further, calling him
"the Paraclete." The religion he founded would
last 1400 years and spread west to Spain and east to China and rival Christianity in the Roman Empire
(Augustine spent 10 years as a member). This anthology of
Manichaean texts gathers important and hard-to-find texts and is
edited by two of the finest scholars on Manichaeanism. A major
resource.

R.A. Markus, Gregory the Great and
His World (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1997)
paperback, $23. Some have called Gregory (d.604) the first medieval
pope. Like his medieval successors, Gregory was an able local
administrator who repaired Rome’s aqueducts and fended off barbarian
invaders; he also saw the papacy in a world-wide perspective,
offering sage pastoral guidance to Christians in North Africa and
initiating the great Christian mission to England. He also lived in
a world that was falling apart: an empire collapsing around him, an
Italy devastated by the Black Plague. He saw himself as pope for
the endtimes—and spoke movingly of the meaning of suffering in his
magisterial sermons on the Book of Job. This is the first
full-length study of Gregory since F.H. Dudden’s magisterial work in
1905.

J.N.D. Kelly, Jerome: His Life,

the ancient world and the famed translator of the Bible into Latin.
His Vulgate became the standard Bible for the next thousand
years. But Jerome was also a sharp-tongued and extremely
ill-tempered man who provoked controversy wherever he lived. This
is the classic biography.
