Augustinian thoughts have been widely revered for their great influence on the development of Western philosophy. While most of St. Augustines ideas were adopted in various fields of modern thought, his ideas on education have been rarely discussed. In reality, one should recognize that St. Augustine, being one of the greatest teachers of the church and a towering figure in all ages of Western philosophy, had implicitly detailed in his works and portrayed in his colorful life important ideas of teaching on education. Although this may be open for argument and debate, this book sets out to present Augustinian ideas on education.
