Which is bigger: a smorgasbord or a cornucopia? I couldn’t decide, so I just smushed them together into one word. Either way, here’s a list of free, online lectures on various aspects of Augustine and his theology. I really haven’t listened to any of these, though I sampled a few, so I can’t guarantee their quality. But, they are from reputable sources. So they should be good resources for anyone wanting to get more familiar with Augustine.
We’re celebrating Augustine week this week. So, if you know of any online lectures that need to be added to the list, please let us know in the comments.
Here are some individual lectures:
- David Calhoun, Augustine’s Confessions
