This volume contains the proceedings of the international symposium on Augustine’s correspondence held at the Nicolaus Copernicus University in Toruń (Poland) on 25-26 June 2015, which was a part of a wider project dedicated to the study of Augustine’s correspondence. Another part of the project is a fully searchable on-line catalogue of issues present in the Letters (www.scrinium.umk.pl).The papers presented in the book access the large corpus of Augustine’s epistles from various academic perspectives (theological, philosophical, historical, literary and rhetorical). First, the present study is thematically more wide-ranging than any of those that had been previously published on this subject; second, it is interdisciplinary in its focus and methodology; third, it provides new, substantial insights into selected problems of Augustine’s work; fourth, it approaches the Letters from two complementary, methodological perspectives: the first part of the book contains papers which study widely defined problem in the light of the whole corpus, while those in the second part deal with specific problems found in particular letters. The result is a significant contribution to our understanding of the complex and fascinating Augustinian world, seen through the lens of his letters, made by authors whose academic experience and scholarly achievements guarantee its quality.

Augustine in Context assesses the various contexts - historical, literary, cultural, spiritual - in which Augustine lived and worked. The essays, written by an international team of scholars especially for this volume, provide the background against which Augustine's treatises should be read and interpreted. They are organized according to a rationale which moves from an introduction to the person (the so-called 'personal context') to the contexts of Augustine's works and ideas, starting from the intellectual setting and extending to the socio-political realm. Collectively the essays highlight the embeddedness of Augustine in the world of late antiquity and the interdependence of his discourse with contemporary forms of social life. They shed new light on one of the most important figures of the western canon and facilitate a more enlightened reading of his writings.

Ce travail s’attache à vérifier la pertinence de la question posée par A. Mandouze en 1954 et demeurée en suspens : Augustin at-il été lui-même un mystique ? Il ne s’agit donc pas de traiter de la mystique Augustinienne, mais d’Augustin mystique. Il est impossible alors de dissocier la vie d’Augustin et ses oeuvres qui offrent de multiples témoignages, explicites ou plus voilés, de l’expérience concrète d’une relation ontologique à son Dieu, entrée dans la vie trinitaire. Les Confessions et le De Trinitate sont naturellement de la première importance, mais l’Augustin mystique peut aussi se révéler au détour d’écrits aussi divers que ses commentaires scripturaires, ses lettres, ses sermons et autres oeuvres dites mineures, qui débordent tout corpus posé à priori
