About this book

In the early 5th century, as the Roman Empire crumbled, Bishop of Hippo Saint Augustine penned "The City of God, Volume I," a profound theological treatise that defends Christianity against pagan critiques. Augustine articulates the concept of the "City of God," contrasting it with earthly cities, and explores the nature of divine providence amidst chaos. He addresses the unalienable rights of the faithful and the moral responsibilities of believers, providing a framework for understanding faith in tumultuous times. Ideal for students, civic activists, and historians, this work offers a compelling examination of faith's role in society, making it essential reading for anyone interested in the intersection of religion and history.
