Augustine’s City of God: philosophy, theology or archaeology of history? - 2023.
19
Contrary to the critical tradition which reads The City of God in the light of categories such as theology of history or philosophy of history, in this paper we propose a reading of the Augustinian great work as an archaeology of evil in history. We show in particular that this archaeology unfolds from a protohistory (the split in angelic society) to tend towards an eschatology of hope in a hereafter of time.
