Zusammenfassung: | Augustine's account of postlapsarian human moral agency in Book I of De libero arbitrio is analysed more fully than heretofore. Consideration is given to Augustine's Stoic antecedents and, following a suggestion by R. J. O'Connell, a comparison with Kant's moral philosophy is developed. The result is a more nuanced understanding of Augustine's account of moral agency in the early period. Whether that account persists into Augustine's later work is left an open question. |
