"From Augustus to Augustine: Essays & Studies Dealing With the Contact and Conflict of Classic Paganism and Christianity" is a profound scholarly exploration into the transformative period of the Roman Empire. This collection of essays examines the complex intellectual and spiritual struggle that occurred as classical paganism encountered the burgeoning force of Christianity. The work spans the critical centuries between the reign of the first emperor, Augustus, and the influential philosophical contributions of Saint Augustine of Hippo.

Author Ernest Sihler meticulously analyzes the cultural shifts, theological debates, and social upheavals that defined this era. Through various studies, the work explores how traditional Roman values and Hellenistic philosophy intersected-and often clashed-with the evolving doctrines of the early Church. Topics include the influence of Neoplatonism, the Stoic tradition, and the eventual triumph of Christian thought over the ancient polytheistic system.

This volume serves as an essential resource for students of ancient history, theology, and classical studies. By detailing the contact and conflict between these two worldviews, Sihler provides deep insight into the foundations of Western civilization and the historical processes that reshaped the religious landscape of the Mediterranean world.
