Augustine's Intellectual Conversion: The Journey from Platonism to Christianity
Dobell, Brian (Universite de Balamand, Lebanon)
This book examines Augustine's intellectual conversion from Platonism to Christianity, as described at Confessions 7.9.13–21.27. It is widely assumed that this occurred in the summer of 386, shortly before Augustine's volitional conversion in the garden at Milan. Brian Dobell argues, however, that Augustine's intellectual conversion did not occur until the mid-390s.
