    The Cambridge Companion to Augustine's City of God.S. J. Meconi (ed.) - 2021 - Cambridge University Press.
    Augustine of Hippo's The City of God is generally considered to be one of the key works of Late Antiquity. Written in response to allegations that Christianity had brought about the decline of Rome, Augustine here explores themes in history, political science, and Christian theology, and argues for the truth of Christianity over competing religions and philosophies. This Companion volume includes specially-commissioned essays by an international team of scholars that provide new insights into The City of God. Offering commentary on (...)

  4. Encounters with God in Augustine's Confessions: Books VII-IX. [REVIEW]S. J. David Vincent Meconi - 2005 - Review of Metaphysics 59 (1):205-206.
    This volume picks up where Vaught's Journey toward God in Augustine's Confessions: Books I-VI concluded. The three chapters of this present work follow the Confessions' three central books, looking at Augustine's Neoplatonic moment of ecstasy, his conversion to Christianity in the Milanese garden, and the shared vision with his mother Monica in the house at Ostia. Very much appreciated in Vaught's approach here is his insistence that Augustine never intended to present these experiences as exclusively his own, but rather as (...)

  5. Augustine: His Thought in Context. [REVIEW]S. J. David Vincent Meconi - 1997 - Review of Metaphysics 51 (1):172-174.
    Given that his writings span well over forty years of maturing genius and that the audiences to whom these writings were directed were as varied as the Pelagians, Donatists, and Manichees, not to mention the Sunday flock, is it any wonder that Augustine’s thought found a home in Wittenberg as well as in Trent? T. Kermit Scott, associate professor of philosophy at Purdue University, begins his survey accordingly by acknowledging that “[p]art of the task of interpreting Augustine at this late (...)

  6. Eternity in Time. [REVIEW]S. J. David Vincent Meconi - 1999 - Review of Metaphysics 53 (1):148-149.
    Anyone interested in the relationship between culture and the intellectual life, has no doubt turned to the works of Christopher Dawson. This collection of ten essays from a recent conference at Oxford acts as an excellent commentary on Dawson’s main academic concerns: recovering history as a philosophical-theological category, and the reintegration of the disciplines so as to provide future generations with an understanding of culture in the truest sense of the term. As John Morrill points out in his introductory essay, (...)

  7. Engaging Unbelief: A Captivating Strategy from Augustine and Aquinas. [REVIEW]S. J. David Vincent Meconi - 2001 - Review of Metaphysics 55 (2):381-381.
    The head of InterVarsity Christian Fellowship at Harvard, MIT, and Tufts, Curtis Chang turns to the seminal works of Augustine and Thomas as a way of engaging the challenges of postmodernity. He accordingly argues that Aquinas’s De Civitate Dei and Aquinas’s Summa Contra Gentiles were composed precisely to challenge a world growing suspicious, if not negligent, of the Christian story. The rhetorical strategy Chang cleverly uncovers in both DCD and SCG is threefold: both Augustine and Thomas enter their opponents’ unique (...)

  8. John of Scythopolis and the Dionysian Corpus: Annotating the Areopagite. [REVIEW]S. J. David Vincent Meconi - 2000 - Review of Metaphysics 53 (4):952-952.
    In the earlier part of the sixth century, John of Scythopotis collected and edited the writings of Dionysius the Areopagite. Elevated to the episcopacy of the important see of Palestina Secunda, sometime between 538 and 544, John not only gathered these texts of Dionysius, he also lent his own Neochalcedonian Christology to them in order to have one more apostolic authority from which to quote against the Monophysites of his day. Thanks in large part to Beate Regina Suchla's recent work (...)

  9. Reading Neoplatonism: Non-discursive Thinking in the Texts of Plotinus, Proclus, and Damascius. [REVIEW]S. J. David Vincent Meconi - 2001 - Review of Metaphysics 55 (1):156-156.
    It was Plato who informed the Greek philosophical tradition of how the King of Egypt declared that writing will inevitably “implant forgetfulness in men’s souls; they will cease to exercise memory because they rely on that which is written, calling things to remembrance no longer from within themselves, but by means of external marks”. Plotinus likewise knew how these “wise men of Egypt” therefore chose to inscribe only one image in their temples and thus “manifested the non-discursiveness of the intelligible (...)

  10. The Confession of Augustine. [REVIEW]S. J. David Vincent Meconi - 2001 - Review of Metaphysics 54 (4):924-924.
    There is something appropriate about Lyotard’s last printed work being his most intimate and revealing. Best known for The Postmodern Condition: A Report on Knowledge, Lyotard died in the April of 1998, leaving his Confession d’Augustin, as Dolorès Lyotard tells us in her “Forewarning,” “scarcely half” finished. Although his New York Times obituary claimed that “awaiting publication is his final book about the ‘Confessions’ of St. Augustine”, this work is less a book about the Confessions as it is an insight (...)

  11. The Philosophy of Peter Abelard. [REVIEW]S. J. David Meconi - 1999 - Review of Metaphysics 52 (3):706-706.
    From the outset Marenbon contends that in treating Peter Abelard as a critic and logician only, most scholars have neglected the originality of thought which Abelard brought to the questions of his day: “The aim of this book is to show that... [Abelard’s] was more than a fleeting superficial brilliance. He was a constructive and, at times, systematic philosopher; and, although it is certainly true that he used the methods of logic in treating Christian doctrine, his theology is remarkable for (...)

  12. Unde Malum: Die Frage nach dem Woher des Bösen bei Plotin, Augustinus und Dionysius. [REVIEW]S. J. David V. Meconi - 2004 - Review of Metaphysics 57 (3):649-649.
    Plotinus knew that evils “wander about mortal nature and this place forever” and Schäfer begins his analysis of evil in the Enneads with a very helpful survey of the philosophical schools and literary tradition of ancient Greece which influenced Plotinus. These opening pages thus treat χαχόν as understood by Heraclitus, Plato, and Sophocles. Schäfer stresses the quasi-dualism present in these earlier thinkers in order to show how Plotinus’ insistence that all is derived from a single origin, the One, forced him (...)

  13. What Has Athens to Do with Jerusalem? Timaeus and Genesis in Counterpoint. [REVIEW]S. J. David Vincent Meconi - 1999 - Review of Metaphysics 53 (1):190-190.
    These six lectures from the twentyfirst Thomas Spencer Jerome Lectures, an annual series exploring various dimensions of Roman life, provide an invaluable reflection on the relationship, Pelikan’s “counterpoint,” between Genesis and the Timaeus down through the ages. How did the only Platonic dialogue known in its entirety during the Middle Ages influence Judaeo-Christian cosmology? Pelikan chooses to answer this question by first discussing “Classical Rome: ‘Description of the Universe as Philosophy’” and Lucretius’ theological and literary contributions to the history of (...)

  14. Gnosticism and Later Platonism: Themes, Figures, and Texts. [REVIEW]S. J. David Vincent Meconi - 2002 - Review of Metaphysics 56 (1):207-210.
    Every year in connection with the Meeting of the Society of Biblical Literature, a special seminar in gnosticism and later Platonism is held. Ten of the papers presented between 1993 and 1998 have been gathered into this volume. Each essay here examines some particular theme where the exchange between gnostics and later Platonic philosophers has proven particularly rich.

    Echoing much of the neo-Thomistic revival of the twentieth century, Fides et Ratio §76 sketches the two main characteristics of a Christian philosophy: it is a type of thinking which simultaneously employs yet always seeks to purify reason and, secondly, it does not close itself off to the concerns and content of revelation. In this way, Pope John Paul II calls for a contemporary understanding of faith which is seen as a virtue freeing human reason from presumption, "the typical temptation (...)

    With the 2015 publication of Pope Francis's encyclical Laudato Si', many people of faith have found themselves challenged to seek new ways of addressing serious ecological questions -- issues essential to the flourishing of all creatures and not just human beings. This volume brings together fifteen select scholars to consider pressing contemporary environmental concerns through the lens of Catholic theology. Drawing from the early church fathers and other authoritative voices in the Christian tradition, the contributors to On Earth as It (...)

    (1 other version)The Cambridge Companion to Augustine.David Vincent Meconi & Eleonore Stump (eds.) - 2001 - Cambridge, United Kingdom: Cambridge University Press.
    It has been over a decade since the first edition of The Cambridge Companion to Augustine was published. In that time, reflection on Augustine's life and labors has continued to bear much fruit: significant new studies into major aspects of his thinking have appeared, as well as studies of his life and times and new translations of his work. This new edition of the Companion, which replaces the earlier volume, has eleven new chapters, revised versions of others, and a comprehensive (...)

    No more than discomfort: the trauma film paradigm meets definitions of minimal-risk research.Nadine S. J. Stirling, Reginald D. V. Nixon & Melanie K. T. Takarangi - 2023 - Ethics and Behavior 33 (1):1-17.
    ABSTRACT Despite Institutional Review Board concerns about psychological harm arising from research participation, evidence from trauma-questionnaire research suggests that participation is typically well-tolerated by participants. Yet, it is unclear how participant experiences of in-lab trauma simulations align with IRB ethical guidelines. Thus, we compared reactions to a trauma film paradigm with reactions to a positive film task or cognitive tasks. Overall, relative to other conditions, the trauma film was well-tolerated by participants: they generally reported low-to-moderate negative emotions, moderate benefits, and (...)

    Why are we sometimes drawn to our own pain, fascinated with our own melancholy? How is it that we can choose to injure ourselves and to rebel against our innate hunger for wholeness and perfection? This article discusses St. Augustine’s understanding of self-loathing and how it stems from the Fall and a consequent false love of self. Augustine analyzed sin as a way of establishing myself as my own sovereign, creating an idol which must eventually be pulled down if I (...)
