The City of God, Books I-VII : Vol. 8 Paperback / softback

Part of the Fathers of the Church Series series

Paperback / softback

Description

Written during the time when the Roman Empire was crumbling, Augustine's De civitate Dei tackles the questions raised by the decline of the political and social order.

Here, in Books One through Seven (of the total of twenty-two books in this monumental work), Augustine examines the history of the Roman Republic and Empire.

Though based on a false religion and a lust for domination, the rise of Rome was nevertheless ordained by God's providence.
