St. Augustine was undoubtedly one of the great thinkers of the early church. Yet it has long been assumed--and not without reason--that the main lines of Augustine's thought have been more or less fixed since his death. That insofar as we should be aware of him in the twenty-first century, he is a figure described--if not circumscribed--by his times. A major revisionist treatment of Augustine's life and thought, Miles Hollingworth's Saint Augustine of Hippo overturns this assumption.
