After resolving to become a Catholic Christian, Augustine spent a decade
trying to clarify his understanding of ‘contemplation’, the interior presence
of God to the soul. That long struggle yielded his classic account in the
Confessions. This study explores Augustine’s developing understanding
of contemplation, begirmirig with his earliest accounts written before his
baptism and ending with the Confessions. Chapter One examines the
pagan monotheism of the Roman Platonists and the role of contemplation
in their theology. Augustine’s pre-baptismal writings are then considered
in Chapter Two, tracking his fundamental break from pagan Platonism.
Chapter Three then turns to Augustine’s developing understanding of
contemplation in these pre-baptismal texts. Chapter Four concentrates on
Augustine’s thought during the decade after his baptism in 387, a period
that encompasses his monastic life in Thagaste, and his years first as a
presbyter and then as a bishop in Hippo Regius. This chapter follows
the arc of Augustine’s thought through these years of transition and leads
into the Confessions, giving a vantage point to survey its theology of
contemplation. Chapter Five concentrates on the Confessions and sets its
most famous account of contemplation, the vision at Ostia fronaBoepk DC,
into a larger polemical context. Augustine’s defence of his transcendental
reading of scripture in Confessions XII is analysed and then used to
illuminate the Ostian ascent narrative. The book concludes with
observations on the importance of Augustine’s theology of contemplation
to the emergence of Christian monotheism in late antiquity.
