Nello Cipriani, Enrique A. Eguiarte B. La Trinidad y la historia, en san Agustín
abstract | view |  rights & permissions | cited by
The article deals with St. Augustine’s idea of the Trinity as it is presented in De Trinitate and other of his Works, to answer to some controversial points stressed by some theologians, focusing in the Revelation of the Trinity within the History; the History of Salvation as a work of the Trinity and caused by the intratrinitarian love; and about the religious meaning of the trinitarian revelation within the particular life of the faithful, as individuals and as a part of an ecclesial community.

Anthony Dupont, Cheuk Yin Yam, Enrique A. Eguiarte B. Enfoque de la imago Dei centrado en la mente. Una construcción dinámica en De Trinitate 14
abstract | view |  rights & permissions | cited by
The article deals with the dynamism of imago Dei in book 14, and puts forward the thesis that the dynamism should be interpreted from the mind-centered approach as a dynamic in epistemological sense. It argues that the mind-centered approach in imago Dei's dynamism can also serve as an example of an entwinement between philosophy and theology.

Mathijs Lamberigts, Enrique A. Eguiarte B. Agustín sobre el matrimonio. Una comparación del De bono coniugali y De nuptiis et concupiscentia
abstract | view |  rights & permissions | cited by
In recent literature, it has regularly been suggested that, in his later years, Augustine of Hippo became more and more pessimistic with regard to marriage and sexuality. At the same time, Augustine was praised for his nuanced view on this issue in about 401, when he developed a middle position between the optimistic approach of Jovinian and the rather denigrating view of Jerome with regard to marriage. While Jovinian was of the opinion that (because of baptism) a life in abstinence and marriage were equally meritorious, Jerome developed an outspoken and negative view on marriage in favor of the consecrated life. For his part, Augustine considered a life of abstinence as superior in comparison to marriage but explicitly stated that marriage was a bonum in its own right. In this contribution, it is made clear that the positions of Augustine in De bono coniugali (about 401) and De nuptiis et concupiscentia (418/19) are substantially the same. In other words, qualifications such as being wise or pessimistic do not really do justice to Augustine’s position, which remained the same through the years. In De nuptiis et concupiscentia, in the midst of the Pelagian controversy, Augustine made much more use of Scriptural texts in order to underpin his view on marriage and concupiscence in relation to the doctrine of original sin: in the controversy with Julian of Aeclanum he had to defend himself against accusations such as innovation and heresy. In the two works, the ethical criterion par excellence for the evaluation of human beings moral behavior remained the propter Deum attitude.

Pío de Luis Vizcaíno La carta 137 de san Agustín a Volusiano, un breve tratado sobre la fe
abstract | view |  rights & permissions | cited by
The article deals with Letter 137 to Volusianus, stressing from the words that belong to the Faith’s Semantic Field (fides, fidelis, credere, credibilis) that the letter could be seen as a brief Treatise about the Virtue of Faith, presenting the meaning of Faith, its anthropologic frame, the auctoritates, the reasons for beleiving, the characteristics of Faith, qualities and aspects of Faith, the effects and difficulties of Faith.

Paul van Geest, Enrique A. Eguiarte B. Agustín y el uso de la fuerza para reintegrar en la Católica a los herejes
abstract | view |  rights & permissions | cited by
The article deals with the violence applied to the Donatists, trying to answer three questions. The first is the about the development that Augustine experienced which finally led him to approve violence against the Donatists and to adopt the coge intrare (i. 112) as his device. The second question deals with the function Augustine envisaged for the use of violence and coercion in the process of returning heretics to the Catholic Church. Finally it traces the general and fundamental principles in Augustine’s way of thinking on violence. For this third question the article considers Augustine’s passages on coercion and violence in texts in which he speaks about administration of justice and medicine, and about the role of God at the Last Judgment.

Hans van Reisen, Marc van der Post Enfermo durante treinta y ocho años. La predicación de san Agustín sobre la curación en la piscina de Betesda (Jn 5, 1-18)
abstract | view |  rights & permissions | cited by
This article deals with Augustine’s sermons on John 5,1-18, the story about the healing by Jesus on a sabbath at Bethesda of a men, who had been sick thirty-eight years. Augustine connects the events narrated in the gospel with everyday life: biblical stories happen not just in the distant past and in a far away land, but express God’s salvation history for people in the here and now. Augstine’s object is to stimulate different groups among his audience to truly live their faith: he exhorts the candidates for baptism to attend the Christian bathhouse (the baptisterium); together with the baptized he helps them throughout a life of difficulty (38 years of illness) to attain a deeper experience of God’s commandments through the double commandment of love (38+2=40). He helps his listeners to consider the special function of their bed as a reference to their neighbor and to reflect on the sense of the seventh-day rest as the destination of each person’s life’ journey. Outsiders he points to the special role and significance of Jesus Christ. Finally, Augustine transforms the tension that is visible in the gospels between Jesus and the Jews into a careful and critical contemplation of all differences between those who share a spiritual and intellectual closeness: he interprets this tension as an encouragement to come to a deeper knowledge of each other and so to banish mutual disaffection. The healed man in the bathhouse becomes a figure of all people, both through his long illness and through the fact that Jesus cured him.
