About 369, the young Augustine due to lack of funds, had to interrupt his studies for a year. Romanianus, a wealthy Tagastan, provided the money for Augustine to go to Carthage for advanced studies in rhetoric. This was in the fall of 370. A brilliant student, Augustine soon became a teacher in his own right, opening a Grammar school in Tagaste (373 – 374) and then teaching rhetoric at Carthage until 383

    For many years, Augustine lived with a woman (whose name we do not know) who bore him a son, in ???, named Adeodatus. The following year Augustine, drawn perhaps by companionship in search for truth, became a member of the Manichaean sect and remained a member for some nine years. The Manichaeans believed in two great gods: one was the source of light and goodness, the other was the ruler of darkness and evil. Augustine became increasingly disillusioned with the Manichaean experts as they proved incapable of dealing with questions he put to them.

    Home again at Tagaste, Augustine formed a small community devoted to the religious life of contemplation and study. But, its peace was soon broken when, on a visit to Hippo in ???, Augustine was forced to accept ordination as assistant priest to its aging bishop. Four years later he became auxiliary bishop of Hippo, succeeding to the see in 396. The bishop in Roman Africa was not only the pastor of the parish, the busy teacher and preacher, but the presiding judge in a much-frequented court of summary jurisdiction in civil cases. Augustine never enjoyed robust health, and the vast extent of his literary output was made possible only by the constant services of stenographers and by his extraordinary capacity to formulate ordered thought.

    Most of Augustine’s important treatises appeared in the first quarter of the fifth century. The book of Confessions was written in the years about ???. Between 400 and 416 he wrote, in fifteen books, On the Trinity, long recognised as the major Patristic treatise on this subject. In almost the same period (401 – 416) his most important biblical work was composed, the Literal Commentary on Genesis. Responding to a growing attack on Christianity within the Roman Empire, Augustine began his famous City of God in 413 and did not complete its 22 books before 426. His numerous letters and sermons were carefully preserved. Four years before his death he undertook to review his many writings, in chronological order. These Retractions (426) give a solid base for determining the dates and authenticity of the more than 1000 works that came from his pen.

    Home again at Tagaste, Augustine formed a small community devoted to the religious life of contemplation and study. But, its peace was soon broken when, on a visit to Hippo in ???, Augustine was forced to accept ordination as assistant priest to its aging bishop. Four years later he became auxiliary bishop of Hippo, succeeding to the see in 396. The bishop in Roman Africa was not only the pastor of the parish, the busy teacher and preacher, but the presiding judge in a much-frequented court of summary jurisdiction in civil cases. Augustine never enjoyed robust health, and the vast extent of his literary output was made possible only by the constant services of stenographers and by his extraordinary capacity to formulate ordered thought.

Between 400 and 416 he wrote, in fifteen books, On the Trinity, long recognised as the major Patristic treatise on this subject. In almost the same period (401 – 416) his most important biblical work was composed, the Literal Commentary on Genesis. Responding to a growing attack on Christianity within the Roman Empire, Augustine began his famous City of God in 413 and did not complete its 22 books before 426. His numerous letters and sermons were carefully preserved. Four years before his death he undertook to review his many writings, in chronological order.

    Most of Augustine’s important treatises appeared in the first quarter of the fifth century. The book of Confessions was written in the years about 400. Between 400 and 416 he wrote, in fifteen books, On the Trinity, long recognised as the major Patristic treatise on this subject. In almost the same period (401 – 416) his most important biblical work was composed, the Literal Commentary on Genesis. Responding to a growing attack on Christianity within the Roman Empire, Augustine began his famous City of God in 413 and did not complete its 22 books before 426. His numerous letters and sermons were carefully preserved. Four years before his death he undertook to review his many writings, in chronological order. These Retractions (???) give a solid base for determining the dates and authenticity of the more than 1000 works that came from his pen.
