This research       interest rapidly came to include all aspects of the turbulent life, the       massive oeuvre, and the complex ideas of the \u003ci\u003edoctor gratiae\u003c\/i\u003e,       imbedded in the historical, political, socio-economic, religious,       ecclesial, and intellectual context of the fourth and fifth centuries.       Driven by a deep respect for the original sources, and always well       informed about the established scholarship, Lamberigts deployed a       rigorous historical-critical method in his publications. The first       nineteen contributions of the present volume reflect this first love for       Augustinian studies. As illustrated by the cover image, taken from the       famous sixteenth-century Leuven edition of Augustine’s collected       writings, Lamberigts’ historical-critical study of Augustine stands       within a rich and enduring Leuven tradition. The same old print       expresses the gradual expansion of Lamberigts’ research interests, which       came to embrace Augustine’s legacy in the fifteenth–seventeenth       centuries. In fact at the end of the Middle Ages, Augustine and his       doctrine of sin, grace, and free will found renewed interest, even       becoming part of the ideological-religious foundations of Martin Luther       – who was after all an Augustinian friar – and hence of the Reformation.       All parties involved in the religious controversies of this period       appealed to the \u003ci\u003edoctor gratiae\u003c\/i\u003e to justify their own position.       Lamberigts has always shown a vivid interest in these developments, and       especially in how Augustinian thinking became a doctrinal pillar of       Leuven theology in the Early Modern Era. Consequently, part of       Lamberigt’s scholarly work has focused on figures such as Michael Baius       and Cornelius Jansenius of Ypres, on movements such as Jansenism, as       well as on the Jansenists’ theological adversaries, the Jesuits. Eight       essays of this volume evoke this particular period in church history.       These twenty-seven papers are offered to Mathijs Lamberigts by former       students and colleagues, out of gratitude for his generous personality,       for his inspiring scholarship, and for his academic leadership.    \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55171693281654,"sku":"9789042943070","price":141.61,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/orig_30146310.jpg?v=1737426715","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/9789042943070-nos-sumus-tempora-studies-on-augustine-and-his-reception-offered-to-mathijs-lamberigts","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
