Abstract

One of the most recent texts in this series is a translation of a selection from Cornelius Jansen's I Augustinus i , the text that - published posthumously in 1640 - sparked the controversy over Jansenism. One of the difficulties in researching and teaching the history of early modern French religion - particularly for the history of Jansenism - is the inaccessibility of sources, especially in translation. Reading it makes very clear how Jansen aimed to provide a summary of Augustine's theology on grace and predestination. [Extracted from the article]
