Description
One of the Pillars of Western Society. 'The bodies of irrational animals are bent toward the ground, whereas man was made to walk erect with his eyes on heaven, as though to remind him to keep his thoughts on things above.' Divided into 22 books, City of God is a Christian masterpiece devoted to the Kingdom of God. Augustine wrote it at a time when Romans thought the destruction around them was a direct consequence of their disregard for the old pagan ways. Augustine argues that Christianity was not only not responsible for the sack of Rome, but was in fact responsible for the original success of Rome.
