Description
A study of the controversies surrounding the Semi-Pelagians in the 5th and early 6th centuries, providing a window onto the Church's prolonged struggle to define the relation of grace and human agency. Clarifies the difference between the Semi-Pelagian and the Augustinian positions; discusses the social contexts of the monastic and congregational settings and how they affected the issues raised; and establishes a distinction between the traditions to which each party appealed for substantiation of its arguments. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or. - from Amzon
