| Summary: | How does Christ's mediation affect the individual human being? And how does that effect on the individual human being's soul relate to the way of salvation that incorporates, in principle, all human beings? Harmon answers both questions by examining Augustine's narration of his own life, and his treatment of the universal way of salvation as it flows among men in society and as it flows through the individual both involve the reconciliation of elements divided by the effects of sin. The healing of divisions among human beings and within human beings, in the thought of Augustine, is effected by the same agency, the redemptive action of the Incarnate Word. |
